[jira] [Created] (ARROW-13126) Read out only the required columns from a Feather file on Disk

Jayjeet Chakraborty created ARROW-13126:
-------------------------------------------

             Summary: Read out only the required columns from a Feather file on Disk
                 Key: ARROW-13126
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-13126
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: C++
            Reporter: Jayjeet Chakraborty


The LZ4 compressed feather format works really well and is quite nice and fast than Parquet when reading all the columns out. For single columns, looks like feather format does not yet support the capability to read out only the required columns from the disk. Are there any plans to add support for this? Here are some numbers to support my claim from an experiment with a table with 17 columns and 5 million rows in uncompressed parquet and LZ4 compressed feather format. No memory mapping involved.
