   @kou That makes sense.
   
   From what I checked, `base64_decode` is mainly used in Parquet-related paths 
(schema, keys), which look like metadata and likely involve relatively small 
inputs. There is also usage in Gandiva (`base64_decode_utf8`), which could have 
larger inputs, but I haven’t fully traced its usage yet. The Gandiva 
implementation processes the full input buffer and allocates output 
accordingly, so it can handle larger inputs in principle, but it’s still 
unclear what typical sizes or call frequency look like in practice.
   
   Does Gandiva sound like the right place to focus for potential larger 
inputs, or are there other use cases I should look into?
