Currently, the data is provided as a single ZIP archive containing all the JSON-Lines files. However, this structure limits the ability to download files in parallel, which could enhance the performance of data retrieval.
You could enable parallel downloading by providing the data as multiple individually compressed files, such as .jsonl.gz. This would offer the following advantages:
- Parallelism: Users can download multiple files concurrently, speeding up the data transfer process, especially for large datasets.
- Selective Downloads: Users can selectively download only the needed parts of the dataset, reducing unnecessary bandwidth usage.
This change could significantly improve data accessibility and usability, especially in distributed or large-scale data processing workflows.
