             Summary: [C++][Python] Poor Table filtering performance
                 Key: ARROW-10569
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-10569
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: C++, Python
            Reporter: Wes McKinney
             Fix For: 3.0.0

{code:java}
import pandas as pd
import pyarrow as pa
import pyarrow.compute as pc
import numpy as np

num_rows = 10_000_000
data = np.random.randn(num_rows)

df = pd.DataFrame({'data{}'.format(i): data
                   for i in range(100)})

df['key'] = np.random.randint(0, 100, size=num_rows)

rb = pa.record_batch(df)
t = pa.table(df)

I found that the performance of filtering a record batch is very similar:

In [22]: timeit df[df.key == 5]
71.3 ms ± 148 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 10 loops each)

In [24]: %timeit rb.filter(pc.equal(rb[-1], 5))
75.8 ms ± 2.47 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 10 loops each)

Whereas the performance of filtering a table is absolutely abysmal (no
idea what's going on here)

In [23]: %timeit t.filter(pc.equal(t[-1], 5))
961 ms ± 3.5 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1 loop each)
 {code}
