-------------------------------------
Summary: [Python] Decimal conversions are slow
Key: ARROW-2362
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-2362
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Wish
Components: Python
Affects Versions: 0.9.0
Reporter: Antoine Pitrou
See https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/1798#issuecomment-376498987
I don't know how critical performance is here, but worth keeping a note of. The
{{decimal}} module isn't exposing an official C API, so fixing this would be a
bit involved. If this is important, we can also try to push for an official
decimal C API in Python (other packages may also benefit).
