This is huge, this was my only gripe with cudf!
I did a conversion of 500GB of data using dask_cudf on a GTX 1060 with 6GB of VRAM and was able to do it faster than a 20 node m3.xlarge Cluster.
What you can do on even consumer GPU's is mind blowing.

Last time I’ve used it, Dask was a lot worse than simple manual batching.
