             Summary: Request for enhancements to BufferAllocator.close()
                 Key: ARROW-14328
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-14328
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Wish
            Reporter: Talia Trilling


We are using Arrow in a production environment and running into some issues 
with memory allocation. Specifically, we would like to be able to call 
`BufferAllocator.close()` and have that clean up the allocated memory even if 
there are existing data objects using it, rather than the method throwing an 
exception upon seeing that the allocator is still in use. Are there any plans 
to add support for releasing memory on demand?
