+ * Use Parquet row-group level merging during rewrite operations when
applicable.

+ * <p>When enabled, Parquet files will be merged at the row-group level
using zero-copy operations
+ * instead of full read-rewrite. This provides significant performance
improvements (up to 13x
+ * faster) for compatible Parquet files.
+ *
+ * <p>Requirements for row-group merging:
+ *
+ * <ul>
+ * <li>All files must be in Parquet format
+ * <li>Files must have compatible schemas
+ * <li>Files must not be encrypted
+ * </ul>
+ *
+ * <p>If requirements are not met, the rewrite will automatically fall back
to the standard
+ * read-rewrite approach with a warning logged.
+ *
+ * <p>Defaults to false.
