cachetools exceptions when reading table metadata

[bdilday]

Apache Iceberg version

0.8.0

Please describe the bug 🐞

While reading metadata via table.inspect.partitions(), have seen exceptions from the cachetools library. There are 2 different variants as shown below. Note that we are using multithreading and this might be a race condition when multiple threads alter the cache?

File "/site-packages/pyiceberg/table/inspect.py", line 314, in partitions    for manifest in snapshot.manifests(self.tbl.io):
                    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

return list(_manifests(io, self.manifest_list))
                    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

thanks for reporting this.

cachetools was introduced here and hasn't changed since 0.8.0

Note that we are using multithreading and this might be a race condition when multiple threads alter the cache?

i wonder if its due to the LRU cache size of 128. how many manifest list files are you typically reading?
