So, PyArrow takes a colossal amount of time when building for `aarch64`,
probably because it building from sources each time, and running the build in a
CI with emulation of ARM takes even longer. Can I help in any way to fast-track
this issue, since it seems like it's been dormant for a while?
for reference when building an Airflow container for `aarch64` (5 hrs in and
still at it):
