**Is your feature request related to a problem or challenge? Please describe what you are trying to do.** Currently, we need to read *some* column in order to compute the number of records of the table correctly. For sources like Parquet however, we can use the table statistics instead. **Describe the solution you'd like** **Describe alternatives you've considered** Create an optimization rule that uses the statistics and replaced the count expression with the statistics based size of the table. **Additional context** -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
