/cc @kayousterhout @markhamstra, this seems like a potentially easy win for
reducing driver memory consumption when performing a write that outputs
millions of partitions. This isn't necessarily a huge amount of memory savings,
but it's a substantial reduction in the number of map entry objects created,
which could have GC benefits.
