Wes McKinney created ARROW-1409:
-----------------------------------
Summary: [Format] Use for "page" attribute in Buffer in metadata
Key: ARROW-1409
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-1409
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Format
Reporter: Wes McKinney
Fix For: 1.0.0
This attribute is currently unused in any Arrow implementation. I think the
original idea is that the "page" might indicate a particular shared memory
page, so that a record batch could be spread across multiple memory regions.
The downside of this unused attribute is that Buffer metadata takes 24 bytes
instead of 16 due to padding.
