Francois Saint-Jacques commented on ARROW-4716:
-----------------------------------------------

Do we need this to be cross-platform, I think Linux should suffice first. It 
might be worth writing this in python for future compat with without.

> [Benchmarking] Make maching detection script cross-platform

>                 Key: ARROW-4716
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-4716
>             Project: Apache Arrow
>          Issue Type: Improvement

> The machine detection script ({{make_machine_json.sh}}) currently looks like 
> it will only work properly on macOS. Ideally it should work more or less 
> correctly on all of them macOS, Linux and Windows (some values may remain 
> undetected on some platforms).
> This probably entails:
> - switching to Python rather than bash
> - using something like [psutil|https://psutil.readthedocs.io/en/latest/] to 
> grab useful machine information
> - calling {{nvidia-smi}} to query GPU characteristics (for example 
> "nvidia-smi -q -i 0 -x")
