Leonard Lausen created ARROW-11463:
--------------------------------------
Summary: Allow configuration of IpcWriterOptions 64Bit from PyArrow
Key: ARROW-11463
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-11463
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Task
Components: Python
Reporter: Leonard Lausen
For tables with many chunks (2M+ rows, 20k+ chunks), `pyarrow.Table.take` will
be around 1000x slower compared to the `pyarrow.Table.take` on the table with
combined chunks (1 chunk). Unfortunately, if such table contains large list
data type, it's easy for the flattened table to contain more than 2**31 rows
and serialization (eg for Plasma store) will fail due to
`pyarrow.lib.ArrowCapacityError: Cannot write arrays larger than 2^31 - 1 in
length`
I couldn't find a way to enable 64bit support for the serialization as called
from Python (IpcWriteOptions in Python does not expose the CIpcWriteOptions 64
bit setting; further the Python serialization APIs do not allow specification
of IpcWriteOptions)
I was able to serialize successfully after changing the default and rebuilding
```
