Downloading tables takes longer when `api = "arrow"`

[botan]

Downloading tables with bq_download_table(api = "arrow") instead of bq_download_table(api = "json") for large-size tables, the Arrow table streams slower than fetching and parsing JSON.

The example below requires bigquery-public-data.usa_names.usa_1910_current table to be copied to your project.

library(bigrquerystorage)
library(bigrquery)
library(tictoc)

billing <- Sys.getenv("GCP_BILLING_PROJECT_ID")

tic()
bigquery_storage_api_rows <-
  bq_project_query(
    billing,
    "
    select name, number, state
      from usa_names.usa_1910_current
     where state = 'WA'
    "
  ) |> 
  bq_table_download(api = "arrow")
toc()
#> Job complete
#> Billed: 125.83 MB
#> Streamed 130809 rows in 32 messages. 
#> 82.522 sec elapsed

tic()
bigquery_api_rows <-
  bq_project_query(
    billing,
    "
    select name, number, state
      from usa_names.usa_1910_current
     where state = 'WA'
    "
  ) |> 
  bq_table_download(api = "json")
toc()
#> Job complete
#> Billed: 0 B
#> Downloading first chunk of data.
#> First chunk includes all requested rows.
#> 3.953 sec elapsed

This issue is resolved when I update bigrquerystorage from v1.2.0 to v1.2.2.
