When user runs select * from date_dim from beeline, FetchOperator tries to compute splits in "date_dim". This "base" and "delta" folders and computes 21 splits.

However, for each of the 21 splits, it ends up loading entire "delete_delta" folders and scans unnecessarily. This increases the scan by "21 splits * 21 delete_delta folders" (i.e 1396) times. This makes the statement execution super slow, even when there is minimal dataset present in the table.

It will be good to scan only relevant delete_delta folder in the split, instead of loading all delete_delta folders in every split.
