---------------------------------------
This issue has been migrated to https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/20137
> textio (and fileio in general) takes too long to estimate sizes of large globs
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: BEAM-9620
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-9620
> Project: Beam
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: sdk-py-core
> Reporter: Chamikara Madhusanka Jayalath
> Priority: P3
>
> As a workaround we could introduce a way to not perform size estimation when
> reading large globs. For example Java SDK has withHintMatchesManyFiles()
> option.

>
> Additionally, seems like we are repeating the size estimation where the same
> PCollection read from a file-based source is applied to multiple PTransforms.

> See following for more details.
