[~westonpace] thank you very much!
> [Python] Memory leak in pq.read_table and table.to_pandas
> ---------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-11007
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-11007
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Python
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0
> Reporter: Michael Peleshenko
> Priority: Major
>
> While upgrading our application to use pyarrow 2.0.0 instead of 0.12.1, we
> observed a memory leak in the read_table and to_pandas methods. See below for
> sample code to reproduce it. Memory does not seem to be returned after
> deleting the table and df as it was in pyarrow 0.12.1.
> *Sample Code*
> {code:python}
> import io
> import pandas as pd
> import pyarrow as pa
> import pyarrow.parquet as pq
> from memory_profiler import profile
> @profile
> def read_file(f):
> table = pq.read_table(f)
> df = table.to_pandas(strings_to_categorical=True)
> del table
> del df
> def main():
> rows = 2000000
> df = pd.DataFrame({
> "string": ["test"] * rows,
> "int": [5] * rows,
> "float": [2.0] * rows,
> })
> table = pa.Table.from_pandas(df, preserve_index=False)
> parquet_stream = io.BytesIO()
> pq.write_table(table, parquet_stream)
> for i in range(3):
> parquet_stream.seek(0)
> read_file(parquet_stream)
> if __name__ == '__main__':
> main()
> {code}
> *Python 3.8.5 (conda), pyarrow 2.0.0 (pip), pandas 1.1.2 (pip) Logs*
