Polars
Blazingly fast DataFrames in Rust & Python
Polars is a blazingly fast DataFrames library implemented in Rust using Apache Arrow as memory model.
- Lazy | eager execution
- Multi-threaded
- SIMD
- Query optimization
- Powerful expression API
- Rust | Python | ...

Rust setup
You can take latest release from crates.io, or if you want to use the latest features/ performance improvements
point to the master branch of this repo.
You can add the master like this:
polars = {version="0.13.0", git = "https://github.com/ritchie46/polars" }
Or by fixing to a specific version:
polars = {version="0.13.0", git = "https://github.com/ritchie46/polars", rev = "<optional git tag>" }
Rust version
Required Rust version >=1.51
Python users read this!
Polars is currently transitioning from py-polars to polars. Some docs may still refer the old name.
Install the latest polars version with:
$ pip3 install polars

Performance
Polars is written to be performant, and it is! But don't take my word for it, take a look at the results in h2oai's db-benchmark.
Cargo Features
Additional cargo features:
temporal (default)- Conversions between Chrono and Polars for temporal data
simd (nightly)- SIMD operations
parquet- Read Apache Parquet format
json- Json serialization
ipc- Arrow's IPC format serialization
random- Generate array's with randomly sampled values
ndarray- Convert from
DataFrametondarray
- Convert from
lazy- Lazy api
strings- String utilities for
Utf8Chunked
- String utilities for
object- Support for generic ChunkedArray's called
ObjectChunked<T>(generic overT). These will downcastable from Series through the Any trait.
- Support for generic ChunkedArray's called
[plain_fmt | pretty_fmt](mutually exclusive)- one of them should be chosen to fmt DataFrames.
pretty_fmtcan deal with overflowing cells and looks nicer but has more dependencies.plain_fmt (default)is plain formatting.
- one of them should be chosen to fmt DataFrames.

ENV vars
POLARS_PAR_SORT_BOUND-> Sets the lower bound of rows at which Polars will use a parallel sorting algorithm. Default is 1M rows.POLARS_FMT_MAX_COLS-> maximum number of columns shown when formatting DataFrames.POLARS_FMT_MAX_ROWS-> maximum number of rows shown when formatting DataFrames.POLARS_TABLE_WIDTH-> width of the tables used during DataFrame formatting.POLARS_MAX_THREADS-> maximum number of threads used in join algorithm. Default is unbounded.POLARS_VERBOSE-> print logging info to stderr
[Python] compile py-polars from source
If you want a bleeding edge release or maximal performance you should compile py-polars from source.
This can be done by going through the following steps in sequence:
- install the latest rust compiler
$ pip3 install maturin- Choose any of:
- Very long compile times, fastest binary:
$ cd py-polars && maturin develop --rustc-extra-args="-C target-cpu=native" --release - Shorter compile times, fast binary:
$ cd py-polars && maturin develop --rustc-extra-args="-C codegen-units=16 lto=no target-cpu=native" --release
Note that the Rust crate implementing the Python bindings is called py-polars to distinguish from the wrapped
Rust crate polars itself. However, both the Python package and the Python module are named polars, so you
can pip install polars and import polars (previously, these were called py-polars and pypolars).
