title: Data preparation and description with large datasets in Datalab
body: <p>I'm currently working with a 6 GB csv file in order to extract some insights from data in Google Cloud Platform. I use to do that work with Cloud Datalab, cause I find it a good tool to visualize the data. The problem comes when I try to load all the information in a dataframe. As I'm running Datalab in a VM, I assume that the performance depends on the power of that VM. Currently, I receive a timeout each time I try to load the registers in the dataframe (even trying with a VM of 4 CPUs and 15GB RAM).
  Is there any standard procedure to clean and visualize data (using dataframes if possible), with large datasets in GCP? Maybe I'm just choosing the wrong option.</p>
  
  <p>Any help would be much appreciated.</p>
