Antoine Pitrou commented on ARROW-3877:
---------------------------------------
Do we have a use case currently for one-shot decompression without knowing the
decompressed length?
Compressed files are read using streaming decompression (which is more
reasonable for huge data anyway).
> [C++] Provide access to "maximum decompressed size" functions in compression
> libraries (if they exist)

> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: C++

>
> As follow up to ARROW-3831, some compression libraries have a function to
> provide a hint for sizing the output buffer (if it is not known already) for
> one-shot decompression. This would be helpful for sizing allocations in such
> cases
