I thought that the INDEX field just returned however many samples are 
requested, regardless of the length of the actual vectors in the file.  So in 
the above example, if I read *1000* samples from INDEX, it would just return 
1000 index values (even though that is longer than any of the vectors in the 
file).

Is this the desired behaviour of datasources?
