Re: Apache Arrow + Spark examples?

bump.

I have same question at Petr. SPARK-13534 seem to only solve
de(serialization) issue involved between rdd and python objects. However,
isn't Arrow can be standard  for in-memory columnar representation? may be
alternative to spark current in-memory store (k-v blocks or tungsten)

Thanks
Nir
