Guesstimate partition boundaries from extrema rather than using expensive offsets
Using order by and offset makes the partitioning a n^2 operation on the number of entries in the table, rather than an instant operation when using min/max.
This assumes the indexable column is more or less uniform, which is not exactly true but not the worst approximation either.
