----------------------------------------

> [C++][Flight] Investigate use of protobuf "lite" library
> --------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-16739
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-16739
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Wish
> Components: C++, FlightRPC
> Reporter: Antoine Pitrou
> Priority: Major
>
> In addition to the full protobuf C++ library, there is also a "lite" variant
> of the library that provides a subset of the full functionality (for example,
> the message class is {{MessageLite}} instead of {{Message}}).
> gRPC seems to have support for using that lite protobuf library:
> https://github.com/grpc/grpc/issues/15604#issuecomment-409690403
> Hopefully it could decrease generated code size and also compile times for
> bundled gRPC builds. It would also make some pieces of functionality, such as
> reflection, unavailable.
