+### Partial Reads
+
+{: .d-inline-block }

+{: .label .label-red }
+
+When reading large files, Everest can fetch from lakeFS only the parts actually accessed.
+This can be useful for streaming workloads or for applications handling file formats such as Parquet, m4a, zip, tar that do not need to read the entire file.
+
+To enable partial reads, pass the `--partial-reads` flag to the `mount` (or `mount-server`) command:
+
+```bash
+everest mount --partial-reads "lakefs://image-repo/main/datasets/pets/" "./pets"
+```
+
