Wes McKinney created ARROW-6281:
-----------------------------------
Summary: [Python] Produce chunked arrays for nested types in
pyarrow.array
Key: ARROW-6281
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-6281
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Python
Reporter: Wes McKinney
As follow up to ARROW-5028 and other issues, in a case like
{code}
vals = [['x' * 1024]] * ((2 << 20) + 1)
arr = pa.array(vals)
{code}
The child array of the ListArray cannot hold all of the string data. After the
patch for ARROW-5028, an exception is raised rather than returning a malformed
array. We could (with some effort) instead produce a chunked array of
list<string> type
