Why
See: grafana/grafana#78651
There is additional memory overhead in Grafana due the import of go-json in Apache Arrow. It looks like this is caused by
init()
initializing global variables in the encoder and decoder.Grafana uses Apache Arrow, but does not currently use Arrow's JSON encoding/decoding features, so it would be ideal if we could avoid the additional memory overhead until JSON encoding/decoding is used.
What
Switch to lazy initialization of global variables in decoder and encoder.
