This is not true, most modern index compression schemes, not just PFOR-delta read more than one integer at a time. Thats why its important not only to abstract away the encoding of the index, but to also ensure that the enumeration apis aren't biased towards one-at-a-time vInt. Otherwise we have "flexible indexing" where "flexible" means "slower if you do anything but the default". -- lucidimagination.com
