> When creating a large enough array, pyarrow raises an exception:
> {code:java}
> import numpy as np
> import pandas as pd
> import pyarrow as pa
> x = list('1' * 2**31)
> y = pd.DataFrame({'x': x})
> t = pa.Table.from_pandas(y)
> # ArrowInvalid: BinaryArrow cannot contain more than 2147483646 bytes, have 2147483647{code}
> The array should be chunked for the user. As is, data frames with >2 GiB in binary data will struggle to get into arrow.
