Do we call it for the test or this patch?

> The scanner use reseek to find the next row (or next column) as part of a
> scan. The reseek code iterates over a Set to position itself at the right
> place. If there are many thousands of kvs that need to be skipped over, then
> the time-cost is very high. In this case, a seek would be far lesser in cost
> than a reseek.
