Streaming hangs at 0% since June 3, 2026

#3
by LH-Tech-AI - opened

Hi,

Since today (June 3, 2026), streaming from dclm-edu hangs indefinitely at 0% with no error and no timeout. The same code worked fine last week.

Minimal reproduction:

from datasets import load_dataset
ds = load_dataset("HuggingFaceTB/dclm-edu", split="train", streaming=True)
print(next(iter(ds)))  # hangs here forever

What happens:

Feeding DCLM (10%):   0%| | 0/5000 [00:00<?, ?it/s]

No exception is raised, the process just stalls silently.

What does NOT hang:

  • HuggingFaceTB/smollm-corpus (cosmopedia-v2) βœ…
  • HuggingFaceFW/fineweb-edu (sample-10BT) βœ…

Both work fine in the same script, in the same session β€” only dclm-edu hangs.

Also tried:

  • Loading via parquet + hf:// path directly β†’ same hang
  • Clearing the HF cache β†’ no change

Environment:

  • datasets version: 4.8.5
  • OS: Linux
  • Confirmed reproducible across multiple runs today AND yesterday!

Could you check if something changed on the dataset/CDN side? Thanks!
