When we are working large files with pandas library we can suffer from memory errors or slow processing. Pandas is a very powerful tool but very memory consuming in terms of RAM if we don't preprocess a bit the original dataframe. On this git I present a simple way to reduce the memory overload of dataframes using pandas functions and tools.
Given a dataframe of 1684.11 MB the memory overload is reduce it untill 128 MB! Find the stop_times.txt file on: https://transitfeeds.com/p/helsinki-regional-transport/735/20190111
