   > a lock is acquired throughout scheduling table service operations - is 
that how it is implemented?
   
   Yes, that is correct. Cleaner can be enabled with multi writers as well but 
cleaner policy has to be LAZY in that case so that cleaner is able to reconcile 
any conflicts before actual cleaning up the older files. With single writer, 
cleaning can be EAGER given that there will be no other writer to conflict 
with. The cleaner will depend on timeline and not on the writer. So, what 
really matters is the number of commits or file versions that you want to 
retain irrespective of whether that threshold is hit by writer 1 or writer 2.
