> Currently indexes are created with the same row format as the table. However,
> indexes can be created in aligned row format independent of the table because
> the columns in the index table doesn't have any other column other than salt,
> index columns, and primary key of the table. These column values constitute
> the rowid. Index rows are always deleted and inserted and are never updated.
> Hence, it goes well to create index in aligned row format. In addition, index
> in aligned row format has the following advantages:
> - Reduced storage space for the index
> - Reduced block cache and memstore space at runtime
