read part of a qs file into memory #92

Hi, I have an R list object saved as a .qs file using qsave(). The file is too large to load into memory using qread(). Is it possible to load only part of the file (i.e. one child element from the list)?

Sorry this isn't supported. I'd suggest loading it up into a machine with more memory and manually splitting it up into chunks.
