Question:

1. Why you can not read all 80K files together? ie, why you have a
dependency on first text file?
2. Your first text file has 6M rows, but total number of files~80K. is
there a scenario where there may not be a file in HDFS corresponding to the
row in first text file?
3. May be a follow up of 1, what is your end goal?
