FYI: I'm proposing making COPY format extendable: * https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/flat/20231204.153548.2126325458835528809....@clear-code.com * https://commitfest.postgresql.org/48/4681/ If it's accepted, we can implement extensions for COPY FORMAT arrow and COPY FORMAT parquet. With these extensions, we can use file_fdw to read Apache Arrow and Apache Parquet file because file_fdw is based on COPY FROM: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/file-fdw.html If you're interested in this proposal, you can review the latest proposed patch set to proceed this proposal. > - Reduce memory consumption when exporting table data to columnar format The above COPY support will help this.
