Phillip Cloud commented on ARROW-1588:
--------------------------------------
[~nongli], [[email protected]] mentioned that you and he discussed why
big-endian might be the optimal choice for byte ordering. Do you remember how
you determined that to be the case?
> [C++/Format] Harden Decimal Format
> ----------------------------------

> Key: ARROW-1588
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-1588
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: C++, Format
> Affects Versions: 0.7.0
> Reporter: Phillip Cloud
> Assignee: Phillip Cloud
> Fix For: 0.8.0
>
>
> We should finalize and harden the decimal format. The remaining issues are
> officially writing down the choice of making every decimal value 16 bytes and
> byte order.
> For byte order we'll need to run some benchmarks to compare little endian vs
> big endian. I plan to work on this over the next week or two.
