----------------------------------------
Or, rather, a Spark generated file for the dummy integer data you're using in
the snippets above?
> [R] Parquet Snappy Compression Fails for Integer Type Data
> ----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-17008
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-17008
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: R
> Affects Versions: 8.0.0
> Environment: R4.2.1 Ubuntu 22.04 x86_64
> R4.1.2 Ubuntu 22.04 Aarch64
> Reporter: Charlie Gao
> Priority: Major
>
> Snappy compression is not working when writing to parquet for integer type
> data.
> E.g. compare file sizes for:
> {code:r}
> write_parquet(data.frame(x = 1:1e6), "snappy.parquet", compression = "snappy")
> write_parquet(data.frame(x = 1:1e6), "uncomp.parquet", compression =
> "uncompressed")
> {code}
> whereas for double:
> {code:r}
> write_parquet(data.frame(x = as.double(1:1e6)), "snappyd.parquet",
> compression = "snappy")
> write_parquet(data.frame(x = as.double(1:1e6)), "uncompd.parquet",
> compression = "uncompressed")
> {code}
> I have inspected the integer files using parquet-tools and compression level
> shows as 0%. Needless to say, I can achieve compression using Spark
> (sparklyr) etc.
> Thanks.
