@QiangCai My question how the user can benefit if he chooses a different
range column for each load. I feel range column should be at the table level
not at the load level.
And regarding compaction, yes currently after compaction it becomes local
sort but there is a way we can support range column compaction like how we do
compaction for partitions. This work can be done in future. But if you allow
the user to choose range column at each load level then this type of compaction
cannot be done.
