Philipp Moritz commented on ARROW-550:
--------------------------------------
Would it be possible to use tensors inside an array (a) if the sizes of the
individual tensors are larger than 2G or (b) if the sum of the sizes of the
tensors is larger than 2G? Having (a) would be best and (b) is crucial.

> Since all data message types at the moment are 1-dimensional, a "tensor"
> message will contain an array of dimensions and an order flag (C order vs.
> Fortran order) to enable data to be interpreted as multiple dimensions. This
> is similar to multidimensional arrays in APL or Fortran or MATLAB, ndarrays
> in NumPy, etc.
