Hi team, See this example of a pipeline, single node, no inputs, one output. Why does it do the last logged operation: loading a dataset back, after the pipeline is completed successfully? P.S. That doesn't cause any issues on my end, I'm just curious.

Hi Yury, I believe Kedro is loading

mi_dataset

after the pipeline finishes because it's an output of your pipeline, and the runner is designed to make these final outputs accessible, which involves a

load

operation from the catalog.

The data is already in memory, so it’s not doing much. If you have the output as a persisted dataset, say a pickle one, that log should vanish
