-----------------------------------
Summary: Reading a dicitionary column results in a disproportinate
memory usage
Key: ARROW-5993
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-5993
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Python
Affects Versions: 0.14.0
Reporter: Daniel Haviv
I'm using pyarrow to read a 40MB parquet file.
When reading all of the columns besides the "body" columns, the process peaks
at 170MB.
Reading only the "body" column results in over 6GB of memory used.
I made the file publicly accessible:
