I would partition the table by some sort of date that autoloader can use. You could then filter your update further and it'll automatically use partition pruning and only scan related files.

I find most of my apply_changes tables are being created as materialized views as well. They do recalculate at runtime, so they're up to date and behave a lot like a table, but they aren't tables in the same sense.
