    Hi @wesm and @icexelloss , that sounds good on our end.  @yinxusen has been 
working on validating some basic conversion so far, but everything is still 
very preliminary so it would be great to work with you guys.  I'll setup a new 
integration branch and ping you all when ready.
    
    > Related to this we'll also want to be able to precisely instrument and 
benchmark the Dataset <-> Arrow conversion -- @icexelloss suggested might be 
able to push down the conversion into the executors instead of doing all the 
work in the driver, but I'm not sure how feasible that is
    
    We were thinking about that too, as it would be more ideal.  For simplicity 
we decided to first do the conversion on the driver side, which should 
hopefully still show a performance increase, then follow up with some work to 
better optimize it.
