You are developing a Snowpark Python stored procedure for processing financial data'. The procedure uses the 'pandas' library for data manipulation and the 'scipy' library for statistical calculations. You want to optimize the execution of the stored procedure to leverage the available resources in your Snowflake environment. Which of the following strategies would be MOST effective in improving the performance of your stored procedure, considering the need to handle large datasets?
Correct Answer: C
Option C is the most effective strategy for improving performance with large datasets. Snowpark's vectorized UDFs allow you to leverage Snowflake's distributed processing capabilities to perform calculations in parallel, avoiding the overhead of transferring data to Pandas. Option B would bring the entire dataset into memory on a single node which defeats the purpose of Snowflakes distributed computing. Option A might help but wouldn't fundamentally address the distribution issue. Option D is a brute-force approach and might help, but vectorized UDFs are more efficient. Option E could work but it requires complicated coding of partitioning logic.
