Parquet file reader - taking a long time

I would not call it a known issue but there were some reports of problems with parquet and KNIME before and I had some strange issues that I was not able to systematically reproduce.

Also I had the impression that when I used parquet as the internal storage I had problems on my Mac (the Column store approach with Parquet is still marked “experimental”).

Today I had the short impression that one Parquet file I used had misplaced some columns, I had not investigated further since a colleague was able to use it without issue.
