 | datafusion.optimizer.repartition_file_scans                | true                      | When set to `true`, file groups will be repartitioned to achieve maximum parallelism. Currently Parquet and CSV formats are supported. If set to `true`, all files will be repartitioned evenly (i.e., a single large file might be partitioned into smaller chunks) for parallel scanning. If set to `false`, different files will be read in parallel, but repartitioning won't happen within a single file.                                                                                                                                                                                          |
