I have filed an issue for adding GPU support: https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/issues/1966 The proposed `arrow-gpu` crate differs from `arrow` and `arrow2` because it is necessary to transfer the array data to the GPU before invoking GPU kernels and then the results can be transferred back. It does not make sense to support accessing individual elements in arrays stored on the GPU. However, in other ways they look similar to arrays on the host in that they have data types and you can query the length and whether they have nulls. As we think about abstractions it would be good to take this into account. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
