pyarrow.lib.ArrowCapacityError: array cannot contain more than 2147483646 bytes, have 2147483648

Describe the bug

Following the example in CodeParrot, I receive an array size limitation error when deduplicating larger datasets.

Steps to reproduce the bug

dataset_name = "the_pile"
ds = load_dataset(dataset_name, split="train")
ds = ds.map(preprocess, num_proc=num_workers)
uniques = set(ds.unique("hash"))

Gists for minimum reproducible example: https://gist.github.com/conceptofmind/c5804428ea1bd89767815f9cd5f02d9a https://gist.github.com/conceptofmind/feafb07e236f28d79c2d4b28ffbdb6e2

Expected results

Chunking and writing out a deduplicated dataset.

Actual results

return dataset._data.column(column).unique().to_pylist()
