Privacy advocates also use Papa Parse to avoid having to transmit sensitive files over the Internet. Now all the processing can be done locally on the client's computer. This is especially significant considering some organizations' policies.

Fast mode makes Papa Parse screaming fast, but you wouldn't want to use it if there are (or may be) quoted fields in your input. Fast mode is fast because it makes one major assumption: no quoted fields. But if you know that your input has no quotes, turn that sucker on. With fast mode on, 1 GB files can be parsed in about 20 seconds.
