      * An Unsafe implementation of Array which is backed by raw memory instead 
of Java objects.
      *
    - * Each tuple has three parts: [numElements] [offsets] [values]
    + * Each array has four parts:
    + *   [numElements][null bits][values or offset&length][variable length 
portion]
      *
    - * The `numElements` is 4 bytes storing the number of elements of this 
array.
    + * The `numElements` is 8 bytes storing the number of elements of this 
array.
      *
    - * In the `offsets` region, we store 4 bytes per element, represents the 
relative offset (w.r.t. the
    - * base address of the array) of this element in `values` region. We can 
get the length of this
    - * element by subtracting next offset.
    - * Note that offset can by negative which means this element is null.
    + * In the `null bits` region, we store 1 bit per element, represents 
whether a element has null
