     * - ``delta.domain-compaction-threshold``
-      - Sets the number of transactions to act as threshold. Once reached the
-        connector initiates compaction of the underlying files and the delta
-        files. A higher compaction threshold means reading less data from the
-        underlying data source, but a higher memory and network consumption.
+      - Minimum size of query predicates above which Trino compacts the predicates.
+        Pushing a large list of predicates down to the data source can
+        compromise performance. For optimization in that situation, Trino can
+        compact the large predicates. If necessary, adjust the threshold to
+        ensure a balance between performance and predicate pushdown.
