> - I found out that, at least when using LocalFileSystem on a windows system, 
> read I/O to load a savepoint is unbuffered,
>  - See example stack [1]
>  - i.e. in order to load only a long in a serializer, it needs to go into 
> kernel mode 8 times and load the 8 bytes one by one
>  - I coded a BufferedFSDataInputStreamWrapper that allows to opt-in buffered 
> reads on any FileSystem implementation
>  - In our setting savepoint load is now 30 times faster
>  - I’ve once seen a Jira ticket as to improve savepoint load time in general 
> (lost the link unfortunately), maybe this approach can help with it
>  - not sure if HDFS has got the same problem
>  - I can contribute my implementation of a BufferedFSDataInputStreamWrapper 
> which can be integrated in any 
> [1] unbuffered reads stack:
