> @Stephen-Robin Splitting a large file into multiple small files will make the Rewrite Action consume more resources, and too many small files are not friendly to hdfs. what do you think about ? @zhangjun0x01 I think it makes sense to split large files into smaller files. 1. the user’s goal is to get the expected file size. 2. When the split target size is set to such as 256M, rewriting large files after splitting will not significantly increase the load of hdfs. 3. After splitting into small files, it is convenient for filtering by file metadata in manifest. 4. We can also add an option to let users decide whether to split large files ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
