> Is it possible to offload the decompression and processing of bytes I definitely think a first step would be to interleave the fetching of the next set of bytes and decoding. This might be as simple as adding `buffered(1)` to the stream returned by `object_store` and polling it every call to `poll_fn`. I'd be happy to get a PR up to do this, if you'd be willing to help test it out (I don't have any realistic CSV workloads) > I had an idea to try to implement some kind of fan-out/fan-in somewhere under CsvExec so that one thread is just reading from disk and sending the raw bytes to other threads to decompress/csv_read/convert to recordbatches Doing this correctly is quite tricky as CSV permits unescaped newlines, which makes it actually impossible to know where a given record starts without having read all prior records, you can't just seek to the next newline character, as that might be part way through a record. That being said, a trick that I believe duckdb uses is to search for the next newline, and then test the first record against the expected schema, if it matches you have likely found a newline from which you can start reading. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
