Review comment:
Seems like this was applied to all file-based IO not just TFRecordIO as
mentioned in the PR description. Have we done enough experiments to make sure
this won't have unintended adverse performance consequences in batch/streaming
? For example, what if the list does not fit in memory ?
Apologies if this was already discussed in the dev list.
