For Arrow, the `binary` cannot store more than 2GB in a single buffer, not a single field. See [Arrow docs](https://arrow.apache.org/docs/format/Columnar.html#variable-size-binary-layout) for more context. > This is interesting, why would Polars go with large_binary by default? See: https://github.com/pola-rs/polars/issues/7422 Still, I think the inconsistency is not good. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
