New issue 1332: Abiity to read a small subset of files in a multipart GADGET binary snapshot https://bitbucket.org/yt_analysis/yt/issues/1332/abiity-to-read-a-small-subs... Anonymous: In many situations it so happens that the data of the GADGET snapshot output is extremely large (mine is around 1 TB) and is divided into many parts in binary files. It becomes necessary to sometimes use only a few of these files instead of the entire dataset maybe for running some initial analyzing test codes. Currently yt doesn't support that. I would be great if such an ability is added to yt. Responsible: ngoldbaum
