From c62e00ed6d290e69288c7675bdd5d9a8f6fc5e07 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stephanie Wang Date: Thu, 12 May 2022 21:35:50 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] [dataset] Use polars for sorting (#24523) Polars is significantly faster than the current pyarrow-based sort. This PR uses polars for the internal sort implementation if available. No API changes needed. On my laptop, this makes sorting 1GB about 2x faster: without polars $ python release/nightly_tests/dataset/sort.py --partition-size=1e7 --num-partitions=100 Dataset size: 100 partitions, 0.01GB partition size, 1.0GB total Finished in 50.23415923118591 ...
