-------------------------------------
Summary: [Python] pkg_resources is slow
Key: ARROW-3029
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-3029
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Python
Affects Versions: 0.10.0
Reporter: Antoine Pitrou
Assignee: Antoine Pitrou
Importing and calling {{pkg_resources}} at pyarrow import time to get the
version number is slow (around 200 ms. here, out of 640 ms. total for importing
pyarrow).
Instead we could generate a version file, which seems possible using
{{setuptools_scm}}'s {{write_to}} parameter:
