----------------------------------------------------------
[~jnadeau] Thanks for opening this issue.
I am afraid we cannot move it to the algorithm package, as it is referenced in
the vector package. In particular, we have the following method in vector API:
{{ArrowBufPointer getDataPointer(int index);}}
If we move it to the algorithm package, there will be the problem of cyclic
dependency.
Can we move it to the vector package instead?

> The memory package is focused on memory access and management.
> ArrowBufPointer should be moved to algorithm package as it isn't core to the
