Folks, say I serialize a GenericData.Record with some schema {a: int, b:
string, c: array[int]} into a byte[] and send it over the wire.

On the receiving side, once I have this byte[] is it possible for me to
lookup just the field 'a' without incurring the cost of deserializing all
the fields?

Any other thoughts around trying to optimize partial lookups?

thanks
