That's probably because selecting a top-level column from a table is just a basic index into a vector, whereas for chunked arrays, you need to process all of the chunks individually to construct a new `ChunkedArray` that represents the child field. Right now, the benchmarks only test top-level selections - but you'd likely see a similar degradation at higher depth levels. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
