Description
We had a PR in 2017 that addressed this issue (https://github.com/crsmithdev/arrow/pull/414), but it was never merged in, and the Cython implementation has since gotten outdated. It would be great if someone could take on this issue.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the outdated Cython implementation in pull request #414 and the current arrow.get entry point. Compare the proposed approach with the current code and establish how performance should be measured. Done means a current Cython implementation is integrated and demonstrably speeds up arrow.get.
