 -------
 -  Utility does not check for duplicate keys and will write data pertaining to both keys. You need to make sure that the keys are distinct.
 -  Once a new page is created, no data will be written in the space left on the previous page. Fields in the CSV file need to be ordered in such a way as to optimize memory.
--  Utility supports using multiline strings with ``file`` type and singleline strings with ``data`` type in the CSV file.
 -  64-bit datatype is not yet supported.
