This requires lancedb==0.30.0 to work, right? Could you bump the versions for deps in pyproject.toml as needed? Thanks!

Hi @wjones127 , is this ready for review? Or has it not yet been officially released in the stable version? |

Hi, this is not ready for review. In general, I leave my PRs in draft until they are ready for review. |
`table.add()` now auto-parallelizes large writes, but the docs still showed only the old iterator-based pattern. This rewrites the "Use Iterators" section into "Loading Large Datasets" with guidance on `pyarrow.dataset` input, the create-empty-then-add pattern, and auto-parallelism behavior. Updates the FAQ to match. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
