   > But I don't think we should realign buffers by default. 
   
   The [arrow standard requires 
it](https://arrow.apache.org/docs/format/Columnar.html#buffer-alignment-and-padding).
   
   > Implementations are recommended to allocate memory on aligned addresses 
(multiple of 8- or 64-bytes) and pad (overallocate) to a length that is a 
multiple of 8 or 64 bytes. When serializing Arrow data for interprocess 
communication, these alignment and padding requirements are **enforced**.
