Iceberg tables store metadata in manifest files. As the number of data files increase, the amount of metadata stored in these manifest files also increases, leading to longer query planning time. The query runtime also increases because it’s proportional to the number of data or metadata file read operations.

A typical example of this is time series data (for example sensor readings), where each event is added as a new record to the dataset. Iceberg doesn’t optimize file sizes or run automatic table services (for example, compaction or clustering) when writing, so streaming ingestion will create many small data and metadata files.
