You wouldn't need DuckDB for this, you can simply store the parquet file in S3 and read them using a parquet NPM package.

Exactly.

We have also tried arrow js or parquet wasm, and they were much lighter than duckdb wasm worker.

DuckDb however was useful in our case, considering our nature as form builder service, we had to provide features for statistics. It was cool to have OLAPS inside a webworker that could handle (as far as we checked) more than 100,000 rows at ease.

I'm still unconvinced.

A regular JavaScript array can also handle 100k object rows very fast.

this is legit awesome!
