Dawid Weiss commented on LUCENE-7122:
-------------------------------------
I'd say do create a separate class... the scenario of all values having exactly
the same length is kind of exceptional -- it'll make for a very clean logic in
a separate class (no conditional jumps too) and it'll leave {{BytesRefArray}}
much cleaner for the eyes.
> BytesRefArray can be more efficient for fixed width values

> Today {{BytesRefArray}} uses one int ({{int[]}}, overallocated) per
> value to hold the length, but for dimensional points these values are
> always the same length.
> This can save another 4 bytes of heap per indexed dimensional point,
> which is a big improvement (more points can fit in heap at once) for
> 1D and 2D lat/lon points.
