   > I think I still need to be convinced it's the Parquet writer's job to 
figure out the best encoding options for a file, vs a user experimenting with 
their data to determine the same (a la 
https://github.com/XiangpengHao/parquet-linter).
   
   Yeah, this is my personal suggestion too - put more effort into organizing / 
teaching people how to choose the writer configuration. I think some sort of 
sampling library to auto tune parquet settings would be super helpful
   
   If there is any missing API to allow users control over how it works, then 
adding it t the parquet crate makes sense to me, but adding new policies here 
is less obvious to me. 
   
   There are all sorts of tradeoffs picking heuristics (memory, cpu, etc) that 
I think any new policies that we added would need to demonstrate somehow a 
benefit to a large number of other users.
