Pulling a big result set from Snowflake into Tableau isn't network-bound. It's CPU-bound — burning cycles converting columns to rows and straight back to columns. @ianmcook of Columnar on ADBC, and the 10-100x you get by deleting that step. link below

We just shipped our official ADBC driver, in partnership with @columnar_tech.
clickhou.se/4gx3nwq
One command installs a signed binary, and it speaks Apache Arrow natively, so results move from ClickHouse into your app with zero conversion.
Ruby, R, and C get real ClickHouse access for the first time.
