lukecwik commented on issue #11037: [BEAM-9434] performance improvements reading many Avro files in S3 URL: https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/11037#issuecomment-595996288 The expansion for withHintManyFiles uses a reshuffle between the match and the actual reading of the file. The reshuffle allows for the runner to balance the amount of work across as many nodes as it wants. The only thing being reshuffled is file metadata so after that reshuffle the file reading should be distributed to several nodes. In your reference run, when you say that "the entire reading taking place in a single task/node", was it that the match all happened on a single node or was it that the "read" happened all on a single node?
