@bdice thanks for the report! I can reproduce this (I actually seem to get the crash consistently) It might also be an upstream Python issue? Because if I replace `pa.array(A())` with `list(A())`, this hangs / blows up memory. You call it an "iterable" object, but since it doesn't have a length, it will iterate indefinitly? In the C++ code handling generic input, we first try to convert any python object to an actual sequence: https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/7526df9ad97219cc44f9b460887405f2b0e86fd4/python/pyarrow/src/arrow/python/python_to_arrow.cc#L1098-L1101 It seems that this object is passing the `if (PySequence_Check(obj))` check, which I find a bit surprising (in pure python, it's not considered a Sequence when using collections.abc) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
