Hello Arrow Community, I am a student working on a project where I need to serialize an in-memory Arrow Table of size around 700MB to a uint8_t* buffer. I am currently using the arrow::ipc::RecordBatchStreamWriter API to serialize the table to a arrow::Buffer, but it is taking nearly 1000ms to serialize the whole table, and that is harming the performance of my performance-critical application. I basically want to get hold of the underlying memory of the table as bytes and send it over the network. How do you suggest I tackle this problem? I was thinking of using the C Data interface for this, so that I convert my arrow::Table to ArrowArray and ArrowSchema and serialize the structs to send them over the network, but seems like serializing structs is another complex problem on its own. It will be great to have some suggestions on this. Thanks a lot.
Best, Jayjeet
