------------------------------------
Summary: [C++][Flight] See if reading/writing to gRPC get/put
streams asynchronously helps performance
Key: ARROW-10351
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-10351
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: C++
Reporter: Wes McKinney
We don't use any asynchronous concepts in the way that Flight is implemented
now, i.e. IPC deconstruction/reconstruction (which may include compression!) is
not performed concurrent with moving FlightData objects through the gRPC
machinery, which may yield suboptimal performance.
It might be better to apply an actor-type approach where a dedicated thread
retrieves and prepares the next raw IPC message (within a Future) while the
current IPC message is being processed -- that way reading/writing to/from the
gRPC stream is not blocked on the IPC code doing its thing.
