 The official Vortex ecosystem provides JVM bindings via JNI (bundled native `.so`/`.dylib`).
 JNI bindings are fast but add deployment friction: platform-specific artifacts, native build
-toolchains, and crash-domain coupling between the JVM and native code.

 This library takes a different approach — 100% Java, no JNI, no `sun.misc.Unsafe`.

+It uses the Java FFM API (`MemorySegment` / `Arena`, Java 25+) for zero-copy memory-mapped reads,
 making it easier to:
 
 - embed in any JVM project without native-library management
 - build and test on any platform with a standard JDK
 - debug and profile with standard JVM tooling
 
+The JARs in this library are tiny, less than **1MB** in total.
