Review Comment:
   Good catch. Broadened the docstring to make clear the cache benefits both 
local filesystems (fewer open/close syscalls and file descriptor churn) and 
remote filesystems/object stores (reused connection state). Regenerated 
`docs/velox-configuration.md` accordingly.

Review Comment:
   Changed the default to a Spark-style duration literal 
(`createWithDefaultString("10m")`), so the docs now render `10m` and the 
docstring explicitly states both a duration string (`"10m"`, `"600s"`) and a 
plain millisecond number are accepted.
   
   On the cross-parsing concern: values are honored consistently. 
`GlutenConfigUtil.parseConfig` reads every `spark.gluten.*` entry through its 
`ConfigEntry` and emits the parsed value's `toString`, so any `timeConf` input 
is normalized to plain milliseconds (`600000`) before it reaches native — 
`ConfigExtractor.cc` always receives a numeric string for its `int64` parse.

Review Comment:
   Added a best-effort eviction probe to this test: after the TTL window, it 
deletes a cached file, waits past the TTL again, and re-scans. This drives the 
"cached handle expired → re-open" path for a file that no longer exists.
   
   I intentionally kept the assertion tolerant rather than requiring the count 
to drop. Velox exposes no JVM-visible eviction counter, and on Linux a 
still-cached FD keeps the unlinked inode readable, so requiring a reduced count 
would be platform/timing dependent and flaky. The assertion enforces the 
invariant that must always hold: the post-TTL scan returns either the full 
count, a reduced count, or a file-not-found error — never silently corrupted 
data.

Review Comment:
   Already addressed — `docs/get-started/VeloxLocalCache.md` was updated in 
this PR to `default is 4` with the new description ("the number of IO threads 
for SSD cache read/write operations"), so it's consistent with this table.

Review Comment:
   Already addressed — the suite now includes the `"scans remain correct after 
TTL expiration window"` test, which sets a short TTL, waits past it, and 
exercises the eviction/re-open path end-to-end (now also with a best-effort 
deletion probe after the TTL window).
