Description

Currently
ds = lance.dataset("s3://test/xxxxx.lance", storage_options=storage_options) ds.cleanup_old_versions( older_than=timedelta(seconds=10), delete_unverified=True, error_if_tagged_old_versions=False )

Could take a long time when thousand billions without any log print. Raise an issue to track any distributed clean way.

Research direction

Start by tracing the Python cleanup_old_versions call shown in the issue and how this repository integrates Lance with Ray. Investigate the existing cleanup path and determine how distributed work should be coordinated for very large datasets. Done should provide a defined distributed cleanup approach that avoids a long silent operation, with tests or observable progress covering the behavior.
