> We use Bytes.compareTo() a lot where we could be using a more efficient
> equals() method. The trick that makes equals() faster than compareTo is that
> we can short-circuit two common cases:
> Case 1) the length is not the same - only need to do one comparison
> Case 2) the two arrays have the same length and a common prefix: compare the
> last byte first, since it's the one most likely to differ (given we are
> usually comparing adjacent sorted data).
