Antoine Pitrou commented on ARROW-12030:
----------------------------------------
In the pull model it seems you only need readahead at the junction between IO
and CPU tasks, right?
In the push model, it seems you would need to add buffering *and* blocking at
every level.
> [C++] Change dataset readahead to be based on available RAM/CPU instead of
> fixed constants/options

> Right now in the dataset scanning there are a few places where we add
> readahead. At each spot we have to pick some max for how much we read ahead.
> Instead of trying to figure out some max it might be nicer to base it on the
> available RAM.
> On the other hand, it may be the case that there is some set of nice
> constants that just always works so this can probably wait until we
> understand more the memory usage of dataset scanning.
