Steve Loughran commented on SPARK-32582: ---------------------------------------- Returning to this. The incremental listStatusIterator() lister may return partial results. Specifically it pages results back in: HDFS, webHDFS, s3a and soon, ABFS. This means if you use it to scan the dir, you can stop as soon as you are finished. Please do a check first: if the iterator is Closeable, call close() on it. This is to provide a hint to those connectors which prefetch pages that they should stop it. > Spark SQL Infer Schema Performance > ---------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-32582 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-32582 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: SQL > Affects Versions: 2.4.6, 3.0.0 > Reporter: Jarred Li > Priority: Major > > When infer schema is enabled, it tries to list all the files in the table, > however only one of the file is used to read schema informaiton.
