Uwe L. Korn commented on ARROW-110:
-----------------------------------

Folly also uses two for large size arrays 
https://github.com/facebook/folly/blob/master/folly/FBVector.h  As this aligns 
nicely with page sizes in OSes (normal and huge pages) "2x" seems like a good 
strategy now.

> [C++] Decide on optimal growth factor when appending to buffers/arrays

> There is some evidence that powers of 2 might not be optimal (the facebook 
> folly library suggests this in there explanation of why they have there own 
> vector type).  They use 1.5 (as do other implementations that don't use two).
