How to parse big json files
By the looks of it you need the whole data structure in the memory. You need to identify what is you performance bottleneck. Is it reading the file or is it JSON.parse or is it your logic? I would start from there. If your validation logic is run only on "edges" and "nodes" then parse only those. More on reddit.com

Note that just like response bodies, request bodies are streams, and making the request reads the stream, so if a request contains a body, you can't make it twice: ... const request = new Request("https://example.org/post", { method: "POST", body: JSON.stringify({ username: "example" }), }); const response1 = await fetch(request); console.log(response1.status); // Will throw: "Body has already been consumed." const response2 = await fetch(request); console.log(response2.status);
