> Still the same question: how is that a problem? @pitrou Reducing the page cache memory usage is the goal of this feature. Per: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-14635 The goal would be to allow for writing a large dataset without significantly impacting the server (this is important if the server is a desktop / laptop being actively used). Filling the page cache with dirty pages leads to unnecessary swapping of active user processes. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
