Parallel replicas: Enhance min_number_of_marks in ParallelReplicasReadingCoordinator
Parallel replicas (experimental feature): give more respect tomin_number_of_marksinParallelReplicasReadingCoordinator#57763 (Nikita Taranov).
Why it matters
This change enhances reading coordination between parallel replicas by ensuring that themin_number_of_marks parameter, which influences data partitioning granularity, is better respected. This results in more efficient parallel reading and better load distribution across replicas, improving query performance in distributed setups.How to use it
To use this improvement, enable the experimental Parallel Replicas feature and configure themin_number_of_marks parameter appropriately in your table settings or reading coordinator. No additional user intervention is typically required beyond enabling the feature and tuning the parameter for your workload.
