Neville Dipale commented on ARROW-11347: ---------------------------------------- Hi [~domoritz] The performance difference looks solid. Do you think that there'd be a downside to using Object, in the ergonomics of the APIs? I haven't used the JS implementation enough to have an opinion, hence I'm asking. If you can open a PR with the change, we can review it and get it merged.
