>                 Key: ARROW-362
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-362
>             Project: Apache Arrow
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Python
>    Affects Versions: 0.1.0
>            Reporter: Uwe L. Korn
>
> Steps to reproduce:
>  * Read a parquet file with {{pyarrow.parquet.read_table}} and convert the table to a DataFrame with {{to_pandas}}
>  * Repeat this several times and see an ever increasing memory usage
> This seems to happen only in this combination. Calling {{gc.collect}} doesn't help.
