Kirill Lykov commented on ARROW-10899:
--------------------------------------

Updates, I've contacted Travis and he wrote that he has a luck of time to work 
on it yet it seems interesting to him. He mentioned also that MSD 
implementation might be better for bandwidth. 

I'm thinking about the way to proceed. One option might be
1. Travis will create a PR just with his radix sort implementation
2. I will add tests and benchmarks to his PR

One thing which kind of worries me is that sorting requires quite intense 
ad-hoc testing and benchmarking, are we fine with adding all these to the Arrow 
repository?

> 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.
