Niklas B commented on ARROW-7945: --------------------------------- [~jorisvandenbossche] That's a good point! I have tried using numpy to create a boolean mask and while that operations is zero copy and lightning fast, the actual filter takes a fair bit of time (2 seconds) to filter out about 50% of 700k rows (~200 columns). I'm guessing its iterating each column, where each column takes about 0.01s. Possibly I can improve this if I write a function in cython/c++, but it's slightly out of my abilities. I'll probably wait for the Dataset API :) > [C++][Dataset] Implement InMemoryDatasetFactory > ----------------------------------------------- > > Key: ARROW-7945 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-7945 > Project: Apache Arrow > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: C++ > Affects Versions: 0.16.0 > Reporter: Ben Kietzman > Assignee: Ben Kietzman > Priority: Major > Labels: dataset > > This will allow in memory datasets (such as tables) to participate in > discovery through {{UnionDatasetFactory}}.
