Latency, predicate pushdown.

Pre-compaction the recent data can be in small files, and the delete markers will also be in small files. This will bring down fetch times, while ducklake may have many of the larger blocks in memory or disk cache already.

Reading block headers for filtering is lots of small ranges, this could speed it up by 10x.



For files up to 100kB of size, this should effectively be really close to the same price as S3 when writing (didn't check reading so much, but the writes/PUT is always much more expensive than read/GET)

Would be really useful pre-compaction and to deal with small files issue without latency penalties
