Bounded streaming

datasets==5.0.0 does not execute this repository's remote Python loader through load_dataset(). Clone code and metadata without downloading Git LFS objects, then use the project-side module directly:

GIT_LFS_SKIP_SMUDGE=1 git clone https://huggingface.co/datasets/ProgramComputer/VGGFace2

Archive bytes are read sequentially and are not extracted or cached.

from VGGFace2 import load_streaming

dataset = load_streaming(
    split="train",
    revision="ad5f6b5a5f560621fd7efb9b79c956d27d427a08",
    cache_dir="./metadata-cache",
    scratch_dir="./stream-scratch",
)
first_hundred = list(dataset.take(100))
