getWriterNoHeader
Expert: Create a packed integer array writer for the given output, format, value count, and number of bits per value.
The resulting stream will be long-aligned. This means that depending on the format which is used, up to 63 bits will be wasted. An easy way to make sure that no space is lost is to always use a valueCount that is a multiple of 64.
This method does not write any metadata to the stream, meaning that it is your responsibility to store it somewhere else in order to be able to recover data from the stream later on:
format(using Format.getId),valueCount,bitsPerValue,.VERSION_CURRENT.
It is possible to start writing values without knowing how many of them you are actually going to write. To do this, just pass -1 as valueCount. On the other hand, for any positive value of valueCount, the returned writer will make sure that you don't write more values than expected and pad the end of stream with zeros in case you have written less than valueCount when calling Writer.finish.
The mem parameter lets you control how much memory can be used to buffer changes in memory before flushing to disk. High values of mem are likely to improve throughput. On the other hand, if speed is not that important to you, a value of 0 will use as little memory as possible and should already offer reasonable throughput.
