Description
I am uploading an image dataset like this:
```
dataset = load_dataset(
"json",
data_files={"train": "data/custom_dataset/train.json", "validation": "data/custom_dataset/val.json"},
)
dataset = dataset.cast_column("images", Sequence(Image()))
dataset.push_to_hub("StanfordAIMI/custom_dataset", max_shard_size="1GB")
```
where it takes a long time in the `Map` process. Do you think I can use multi-processing to map all the image data to the memory first? For the `Map()` function, I can set `num_proc`. But for `push_to_hub` and `cast_column`, I can not find it.
Thanks in advance!
Best,
