-Testing:
-o  Giant runs.
-o  Records of odd lengths.
-o  Empty files.
+Cleanups:
+o  Clean up introductory comments.
+o  Log messages should show both original and new size of the data. The speed
+   should be probably calculated from the former.
+o  Buffer sizing in shep-export.
 
 Improvements:
-o  Alignment? Use of SSE?
-o  Use radix-sort for internal sorting.
-o  Parallelization of internal sorting.
-o  Clean up data types and make sure they cannot overflow. (size_t vs. u64 vs. sh_off_t vs. uns)
-o  Buffer sizing in internal sorters.
-o  Switching between direct and normal I/O.
-o  When merging, choose the output file with less runs instead of always switching?
-o  Implement multi-way merge.
-o  Mode with only 2-way unification?
-o  Speed up 2-way merge.
-o  Speed up radix splitting.
-o  A debug switch for disabling the presorter.
+o  When quicksorting a large input (especially in threaded case), invest more
+   time to picking a good pivot.
