Hello everyone,
I'd like to ask if Wikidata could please offer a HDT [1] dump along with the already available Turtle dump [2]. HDT is a binary format to store RDF data, which is pretty useful because it can be queried from command line, it can be used as a Jena/Fuseki source, and it also uses orders-of-magnitude less space to store the same data. The problem is that it's very impractical to generate a HDT, because the current implementation requires a lot of RAM processing to convert a file. For Wikidata it will probably require a machine with 100-200GB of RAM. This is unfeasible for me because I don't have such a machine, but if you guys have one to share, I can help setup the rdf2hdt software required to convert Wikidata Turtle to HDT.
Thank you.
