> [JS] Writer swaps byte order if buffers share the same underlying ArrayBuffer
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: ARROW-5100
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-5100
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Bug

> We collapse contiguous Uint8Arrays that share the same underlying ArrayBuffer
> and have overlapping byte ranges. This was done to maintain true zero-copy
> behavior when using certain node core streams that use a buffer pool
> internally, and could write chunks of the same logical Arrow Message at
> out-of-order byte offsets in the pool.
> Unfortunately this can also lead to a bug where, in rare cases, buffers are
> swapped while writing Arrow Messages too. We could have a flag to indicate
> whether we think collapsing out-of-order same-buffer chunks is safe, but I'm
> not sure if we can always know that, so I'd prefer to take it out and incur
> the copy cost.
