    Minor: I'd get rid of this logger if statement. The output could be pretty 
huge.

> We've found that smaller guideposts are better in terms of minimizing any 
> increase in latency for point scans. However, this increases the amount of 
> memory significantly when caching the guideposts on the client. Guidepost are 
> equidistant row keys in the form of raw byte[] which are likely to have a 
> large percentage of their leading bytes in common (as they're stored in 
> sorted order. We should use a simple compression technique to mitigate this. 
> I noticed that Apache Parquet has a run length encoding - perhaps we can use 
> that.
