分块不应该总是解决这个问题的第一步。

Is the file large due to repeated non-numeric data or unwanted columns? If so, you can sometimes see massive memory savings by reading in columns as categories and selecting required columns via pd.read_csv usecols parameter. Does your workflow require slicing, manipulating, exporting? If so, you can use dask.dataframe to slice, perform your calculations and export iteratively. Chunking is performed silently by dask, which also supports a subset of pandas API. If all else fails, read line by line via chunks. Chunk via pandas or via csv library as a last resort.

如果你有一个csv文件，有数百万个数据条目，你想要加载完整的数据集，你应该使用dask_cudf，

import dask_cudf as dc

df = dc.read_csv("large_data.csv")

对于大数据，我建议你使用"dask"库，例如:

# Dataframes implement the Pandas API
import dask.dataframe as dd
df = dd.read_csv('s3://.../2018-*-*.csv')

你可以在这里阅读更多的文档。

另一个很好的选择是使用modin，因为所有的功能都与pandas相同，但它利用了分布式数据框架库，如dask。

在我的项目中，另一个高级库是数据表。

# Datatable python library
import datatable as dt
df = dt.fread("s3://.../2018-*-*.csv")

您可以将数据读入为块，并将每个块保存为pickle。

import pandas as pd 
import pickle

in_path = "" #Path where the large file is
out_path = "" #Path to save the pickle files to
chunk_size = 400000 #size of chunks relies on your available memory
separator = "~"

reader = pd.read_csv(in_path,sep=separator,chunksize=chunk_size, 
                    low_memory=False)    


for i, chunk in enumerate(reader):
    out_file = out_path + "/data_{}.pkl".format(i+1)
    with open(out_file, "wb") as f:
        pickle.dump(chunk,f,pickle.HIGHEST_PROTOCOL)

在下一步中，读入pickle并将每个pickle附加到所需的数据框架中。

import glob
pickle_path = "" #Same Path as out_path i.e. where the pickle files are

data_p_files=[]
for name in glob.glob(pickle_path + "/data_*.pkl"):
   data_p_files.append(name)


df = pd.DataFrame([])
for i in range(len(data_p_files)):
    df = df.append(pd.read_pickle(data_p_files[i]),ignore_index=True)

在使用chunksize选项之前，如果你想确定你想要在@unutbu提到的分块for循环中写入的进程函数，你可以简单地使用nrows选项。

small_df = pd.read_csv(filename, nrows=100)

一旦确定流程块准备好了，就可以将其放入整个数据帧的分块for循环中。

如果有人还在寻找这样的东西，我发现这个名为modin的新库可以提供帮助。它使用分布式计算来帮助读取。这里有一篇不错的文章将其功能与熊猫进行了比较。它本质上使用与熊猫相同的功能。

import modin.pandas as pd
pd.read_csv(CSV_FILE_NAME)
