> * improved  mixed insertion sort (makes whole sorting faster)
> * introduced Radix which sort shows several times boost of performance and has linear complexity instead of n*ln(n)
> * improved merging sort for almost sorted data
> * optimized parallel sorting
> * improved step for pivot candidates and pivot partitioning
> * extended existing tests
> * added benchmarking JMH tests
> * suggested better buffer allocation: if no memory, it is switched to in-place sorting with no OutOfMemoryError, threshold is 1/16th heap
> 
> I am going on previous PR by Vladimir Yaroslavskyi: https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/3938
