Kirill Lykov commented on ARROW-10899:
--------------------------------------
Your intuition is correct, at least for int32_t key. I benchmarked separately
from arrow std::sort, std::stable_sort, boost::spreadsort, myNaiveRadixSort.
And surprisingly to me even naive radix sort is faster than std sorts. But
boost's spread sort is better. Y-axis is kMilliseconds, X-axis is number of
elements in the array.

> For integer arrays with a non-tiny range of values, we currently use a stable
> sort. It may be faster to use a radix sort instead.
