 Data and delete files for a snapshot can be stored in more than one manifest. 
This enables:
 
 * Appends can add a new manifest to minimize the amount of data written, 
instead of adding new records by rewriting and appending to an existing 
manifest. (This is called a “fast append”.)
-* Tables can use multiple partition specs. A table’s partition configuration 
can evolve if, for example, its data volume changes. Each manifest uses a 
single partition spec, and queries do not need to change because partition 
filters are derived from data predicates.

can parallelize job planning or reduce the cost of rewriting a manifest.
