@szehon-ho : Say for `partition-a` I have `record_count`=6 and `file_count`=2. [3 records in each file] Now, I do position delete which marks 3 records in file1 as deleted for `partition-a`. So, are you suggesting instead of decrementing `record_count` to 3 and incrementing `file_count` to 3, increment `pos_delete_record_count`=3, `pos_delete_file_count`=1 ? In this case, the user has to manually calculate that now instead of 6 there are 3 total records and instead of 2 files, now need to scan 3 files. Sounds good to me. It avoids confusion. What about the global deletes? (row level delete for unpartitioned data). Does it come under the partition value `null`? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
