@MicroGery It means that the length of the *metadata* (the flatbuffer bytes + padding to an 8-byte boundary) is 768 bytes. Once you decode the flatbuffer metadata, it'll contain the length of the body data as a member which should follow the 768 bytes you read. Does that makes sense? You can refer to the [documentation](https://arrow.apache.org/docs/format/Columnar.html#serialization-and-interprocess-communication-ipc) for more description of interpreting the bytes -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
