             Summary: [C++] Allow in-memory array over 2^31 -1 elements but require splitting at IPC / RPC boundaries
                 Key: ARROW-493
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-493
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: C++
            Reporter: Wes McKinney


To make Arrow a more flexible container for interacting with foreign data, it will be useful to be able to do zero-copy construction of arrays having a footprint of larger than 2 billion * sizeof(type). When sending such data over the wire, we would need to break it into pieces of at most 2 billion
