   > So the vint column in your table is the vlong value your read/write?
   
   Yes! The vint column in the table is the vlong value for the read/write 
(sorry for the confusing name). 
   
   >  Where 9 would be 1 byte, and 512 would be 2 bytes?
   
   Yeah 9 can be encoded with 1 byte, but 512 will require 3 bytes (1st byte is 
vLong size byte, since vLong can't fit completely inside a single byte, the 
first byte is just used to indicate size & sign and the next two bytes hold 
512).
