>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: SQL
>    Affects Versions: 3.0.0
>            Reporter: Manu Zhang
>            Priority: Minor
>
> Currently in AQE when coalescing shuffling partitions,
> {quote}We fall back to Spark default parallelism if the minimum number of coalesced partitions is not set, so to avoid perf regressions compared to no coalescing.
> {quote}
> From our experience, this has resulted in a lot of uncertainty of the number of tasks after coalescing especially with dynamic allocation, and also lead to many small output files. It's complex and hard to reason about.
> Hence, I'm proposing not falling back to the default parallelism but coalescing towards the target size when the minimum number of coalesced partitions is not set.
