Review comment:
       I think it's fine to just do this based on the number of files since the 
read penalty is directly related to the number of files and less so to the 
amount of actual rows deleted. 
   
   No strong feeling on the default since we already have the amount of delete 
files in the task information so I don't think the check is very expensive
