### Describe the usage question you have. Please include as many useful details as possible. `parquet.thrift` in parquet-format repo describes `RowGroup` `total_byte_size` field meaning [as](https://github.com/apache/parquet-format/blob/737ea12e56357e83b14fd3e27ef274145beed399/src/main/thrift/parquet.thrift#L920C7-L920C76) > Total byte size of all the uncompressed column data in this row group This is also the case for C++ implementation of parquet in arrow repo. But in case of Go implementation `total_byte_size` is described [as](https://github.com/apache/arrow-go/blob/14844aea32054a0b7cc086df58a4a74610b0b306/parquet/metadata/row_group.go#L62) > TotalByteSize is the total size of this rowgroup on disk The difference between these values can be large, when compression is applied to column chunks. My question is: Is that intentional inconsistency with format definition and other implementations? And if so, why does this distinction has been made? ### Component(s) Go, Parquet P.S.: This issue is duplicate of https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/44205, but as I see this repo is now main location of Arrow Go -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
