I downloaded all parquet files from fineweb-edu/data, but the whole dataset is only 3.8TB instead of 8.8TB as listed in the main page.
I also counted the number of folders and files and found 1630 parquet files in 95 folders. If we do a rough calculation, each parquet file is about 2.3GB, so we have 2.3 x 1630 / 1024 = 3.7TB, which matches my downloaded size.
Am I missing any files?
One is counting the whole git repo. One is counting just the data directory within the repo.
Here is what I did:
$ git lfs install
$ git clone https://huggingface.co/datasets/HuggingFaceFW/fineweb-edu
$ cd fineweb-edu
$ du -sh .
9.3T .
$ du -sh .git *
4.7T .git
3.5T data
24K README.md
1.2T sample
Since .git directory holds the history, so it is best clone the repo without history.
git clone --depth 1 https://huggingface.co/datasets/HuggingFaceFW/fineweb-edu
Thanks! I only downloaded \data folder so that's why.
