The way count(*) will operate is the same. If there are delete files spark will fall back to actually counting rows. The reason we have to do this (in all current versions at least) is that a Data Row Count - Delete Row count can't actually be preformed. Equality deletes don't know how many deletes they apply and position deletes files are allowed to overlap which means we can't actually determine the number of real unique deletes from metadata alone. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
