This microbenchmark tests performance of the galloping reader
optimization. A combining reader that merges results from four other
readers is created. Each sub-reader provides a range of 32 clustering
rows that is disjoint from others. All sub-readers return rows from
the same partition. An improvement can be observed after introducing the
galloping reader optimization.
As for other benchmarks from the "combined" group, results are pretty
close to the old ones. The only one that seems to have suffered slightly
is combined.many_overlapping.
