I was trying https://github.com/sfu-db/connector-x and hacking around with this https://github.com/spitz-dan-l/postgres-binary-parser but it turned out that a COPY to csv using asyncpg and then converting to parquet was the fastest.

Another tip: use https://github.com/sfu-db/connector-x to load database query result to pandas without memory copy resulting in faster operation.
