Review comment:
I probably misunderstand something here and I am sorry I don't quite
follow all the comments on this PR.
If the issue you are trying to solve is that `File::open` is called too
often, would it be possible to "memoize" the open here with a mutex inside of
the FileReader?
Something like
```rust
struct LocalFileReader {
...
/// Keep the open file descriptor to avoid reopening it
cache: Mutex<Option<Box<dyn Read + Send + Sync + Clone>>>
}
impl LocalFileReader {
...
fn sync_chunk_reader(
&self,
start: u64,
length: usize,
) -> Result<Box<dyn Read + Send + Sync>> {
let mut cache = self.cache.lock();
if let Some(cache) = cache {
return Ok(cache.clone())
};
*cache = File::open(...);
return cache.clone();
}
```
