Eugene Koifman commented on HIVE-15202:
---------------------------------------
It's not. The cleaner can only remove files that are obsolete, i.e. there is
another (better/wider) delta/base that includes the same data. No reader
(including compaction) reads obsolete data
> Concurrent compactions for the same partition may generate malformed folder
> structure
