> Parquet summary files are not particular useful nowadays since
> # when schema merging is disabled, we assume schema of all Parquet part-files are identical, thus we can read the footer from any part-files.
> # when schema merging is enabled, we need to read footers of all files anyway to do the merge.
> On the other hand, writing summary files can be expensive because footers of all part-files must be read and merged. This is particularly costly when appending small dataset to large existing Parquet dataset.
