If you start out with primitives, that's true.  But if you are 
projecting objects to primitives, the only boxing is for the final 
answer; everything else happens in the primitive domain.  See, for 
example, summarizingInt(T -> int); no matter how many elements or how 
many splits, there's only the one box operation for the final result.
