best performance, see
- Since Spark 2.4, File listing for compute statistics is done in
parallel by default. This can be disabled by setting
`spark.sql.parallelFileListingInStatsComputation.enabled` to `False`.
- Since Spark 2.4, Metadata files (e.g. Parquet summary files) and
temporary files are not counted as data files when calculating table size
during Statistics computation.
- Since Spark 2.4, empty strings are saved as quoted empty strings `""`.
In version 2.3 and earlier, empty strings are equal to `null` values and do not
reflect to any characters in saved CSV files. For example, the row of `"a",
null, "", 1` was writted as `a,,,1`. Since Spark 2.4, the same row is saved as
`a,,"",1`. To restore the previous behavior, set the CSV option `emptyValue` to
empty (not quoted) string.
+ - Since Spark 2.4 load command from local filesystem supports wildcards
in the folder level paths(e.g. LOAD DATA LOCAL INPATH 'tmp/folder*/). Now
onwards normal space convention can be used in folder/file names (e.g. LOAD
DATA INPATH 'tmp/folderName/file Name.csv), Older versions space in folder/file
names has been represented using '%20'(e.g. LOAD DATA INPATH
'tmp/folderName/myFile%20Name.csv), this usage will not be supported from spark
2.4 version.

<<From your previous analysis, spaces in paths didn't work before even if
escaped with %20. Shouldn't we just say that>>
@srowen I modified the statement please recheck once and let me know for
any suggestions.
