fastreg: Fast Conversion and Querying of Danish Registers with 'Parquet'
Converts large Danish register files ('sas7bdat') into 'Parquet' format with year-based 'Hive' partitioning and chunked reading for larger-than-memory files. Supports parallel conversion with a 'targets' pipeline and reading those registers into 'DuckDB' tables for faster querying and analyses.
