Description
This will improve the write performance by 1/3 - 1/4 based on my testing. It makes a huge difference when dealing with really large files (several GBs).
In the original implementation, a significant time was spent on creating unnecessary Java objects.

Research direction
Start by locating writeAllFields in the proto-parquet component and reviewing its current object-creation path. Use the issue's large-file performance scenario as the benchmark; done means the method avoids the unnecessary Java objects identified in the implementation and shows the intended write-performance improvement.
