Steve Cosenza commented on BEAM-4379:
-------------------------------------

I'm currently evaluating the scalability and performance of Google Dataflow, 
and we need the ability to read splittable Parquet files. I created an initial 
POC based on "Splittable DoFn", but I just now learned that Dataflow "_Does not 
yet support autotuning features of the Source API."_~1~ __ Additionally, the 
Beam docs state, _"__In some cases, implementing a {{Source}} might be 
necessary or result in better performance"~2~._ 

Questions:
 * Should I be targeting the BoundedSource API and will I be able to submit a 
PR that changes the existing ParquetIO to use a BoundedSource?

Thanks,

Steve
