PS8, Line 161: IPointable argument
> I originally had it as passing varargs in the previous patch set, however, 
I conjecture that a modern JVM will not heap allocate an array for this varargs 
invocation, due to escape analysis, inlining and/or loop unrolling.  We should 
probably have some determination before we continue to rework the patch.


PS8, Line 171:        // MISSING check
             :         if (data[offset] == 
ATypeTag.SERIALIZED_MISSING_TYPE_TAG) {
             :             setMissing(result);
             :             return true;
             :         }
             : 
             :         // NULL check (Only flag at this stage)
             :         if (data[offset] == ATypeTag.SERIALIZED_NULL_TYPE_TAG) {
             :             setNull(result);
             :             isNull.setValue(true);
             :         }
             : 
             :         // This is reached only if it's not MISSING or NULL
             :         return false;
> That's what I'm currently contemplating. Although it makes more sense to re
we should finalize on how how to pass multiple pointables first, I think, 
before we determine the right thing to do here.  if we can just pass all the 
arg results in a single helper call (my vote), then setting the null / missing 
on the result can be done inside the helper and we can have a single boolean 
return true if it was null or missing (which is probably what you had before).
