//
// For small shard sizes, 10MB and below, it is recommended to use the in-memory interface,
// since the streaming interface has a start up overhead.
//
// For all operations, no readers and writers should not assume any order/size of
// individual reads/writes.
//
// For usage examples, see "stream-encoder.go" and "streamdecoder.go" in the examples
// folder.
