> {{FileUtils.listStatusRecursively}} can be slow on blobstores because {{listStatus}} calls are applied recursively to a given directory. This can be especially bad on tables with multiple levels of partitioning.
> The {{FileSystem}} API provides an optimized API called {{listFiles(path, recursive)}} that can be used to invoke an optimized recursive directory listing.
> The problem is that the {{listFiles(path, recursive)}} API doesn't provide a option to pass in a {{PathFilter}}, while {{FileUtils.listStatusRecursively}} uses a custom HIDDEN_FILES_PATH_FILTER.
> To fix this we could either:
> 1: Modify the FileSystem API to provide a {{listFiles(path, recursive, PathFilter)}} method
> 2: Add conditional logic so that blobstores invoke {{listFiles(path, recursive)}} and the rest of the code uses the current implementation of {{FileUtils.listStatusRecursively}}
> 3: Replace the implementation of {{FileUtils.listStatusRecursively}} with {{listFiles(path, recursive)}} and apply the {{PathFilter}} on the results
