Antoine Pitrou commented on ARROW-11463:
----------------------------------------
PyArrow serialization is deprecated, users should use pickle themselves.
It is true that out-of-band data provides zero-copy support for buffers
embedded in the pickled data. It is tested here:

> For tables with many chunks (2M+ rows, 20k+ chunks), `pyarrow.Table.take`
> will be around 1000x slower compared to the `pyarrow.Table.take` on the table
> with combined chunks (1 chunk). Unfortunately, if such table contains large
> list data type, it's easy for the flattened table to contain more than 2**31
> rows and serialization of the table with combined chunks (eg for Plasma
> store) will fail due to `pyarrow.lib.ArrowCapacityError: Cannot write arrays
> larger than 2^31 - 1 in length`
> I couldn't find a way to enable 64bit support for the serialization as called
> from Python (IpcWriteOptions in Python does not expose the CIpcWriteOptions
> 64 bit setting; further the Python serialization APIs do not allow
> specification of IpcWriteOptions)
> I was able to serialize successfully after changing the default and rebuilding
> {code:c++}
> modified cpp/src/arrow/ipc/options.h
