-----------------------------------
Summary: [C#] Consider exposing ValueTask instead of Task
Key: ARROW-4717
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-4717
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: C#
Reporter: Eric Erhardt
See [https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/3736#pullrequestreview-207169204] for
the discussion and
[https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/understanding-the-whys-whats-and-whens-of-valuetask/]
for the reasoning.
Using `Task<T>` in public API requires that a new Task instance be allocated on
every call. When returning synchronously, using ValueTask will allow the method
to not allocate.
In order to do this, we will need to take a new dependency on
{{System.Threading.Tasks.Extensions}} NuGet package.
