>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-4716
>             Project: Apache Arrow
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Benchmarking

> The machine detection script ({{make_machine_json.sh}}) currently looks like it will only work properly on macOS. Ideally it should work more or less correctly on all of them macOS, Linux and Windows (some values may remain undetected on some platforms).
> This probably entails:
> - switching to Python rather than bash
> - using something like [psutil|https://psutil.readthedocs.io/en/latest/] to grab useful machine information
> - calling {{nvidia-smi}} to query GPU characteristics (for example "nvidia-smi -q -i 0 -x")
