> [R] Optimize dplyr queries that use head/tail after arrange

>                 Key: ARROW-12763
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-12763
>             Project: Apache Arrow
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: R
>            Reporter: Ian Cook
>            Assignee: Alexander Ocsa
>            Priority: Major
>              Labels: query-engine
>             Fix For: 6.0.0

> Use the Arrow C++ function {{partition_nth_indices}} to optimize dplyr 
> queries like this:
> {code:r}
> iris %>%
>   Table$create() %>% 
>   arrange(desc(Sepal.Length)) %>%
>   head(10) %>%
>   collect()
> {code}
> This query sorts the full table even though it doesn't need to. It could use 
> {{partition_nth_indices}} to find the rows containing the top 10 values of 
> {{Sepal.Length}} and only collect and sort those 10 rows.
> Test to see if this improves performance in practice on larger data.
