    @viirya , thank you for preparing benchmark results. Let me clarify this 
implementation by two questions.
    
    1.  To reduce memory foot print, does this PR allocate an array for each 
column with the number of row instead of ``` DEFAULT_BATCH_SIZE```?
    2.  Why can this PR improve performance?  When I see ```getInt()``` both 
for ```OnHeapColumnVector.java``` and ```OnHeapConstantColumnVector.java```, 
they are almost similar (```intData[rowId]``` and ```intData[0]```). Does the 
performance improvement come from possible elimination of index bound check due 
to constant index access? Correct?
    If so, we could do the similar thing by using ```Platform.getInt()``` in 
```OnHeapColumnVector.java```.
