…eger types When converting ArrowExtensionArray to string dtype, use PyArrow's native pc.cast() for integer and string types where the string representation matches Python's str(). This avoids unnecessary conversion through NumPy. Float and boolean types still fall back to lib.ensure_string_array because PyArrow's string representation differs from Python's str(): - Float: 1.0 -> "1" (PyArrow) vs "1.0" (Python) - Bool: True -> "true" (PyArrow) vs "True" (Python) 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <[email protected]>

Arrow
When using_infer_string is False, string columns start as object dtype and get converted to Arrow, so memory is not shared. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <[email protected]>
