Antoine Pitrou commented on ARROW-1861:
---------------------------------------
Also the "peakmem" tests don't look terribly useful as they measure the weight
of the benchmark harness (e.g. the pure Python list we're trying to convert)
rather than the overhead of the benchmarked operation.
> [Python] Fix up ASV setup, add developer instructions for writing new
> benchmarks and running benchmark suite locally
