Hi, thanks for the great library.

I was wondering if there is a way to configure gray-matter to skip reading large content of files with front matter once it found the front matter?

I'm dealing with large MDX files with significant amount of content which delay the load metrics. Happy to hear a work-around as well 🙏

Do you know if this is a feature of the library? I was also wondering the same thing for performance, since I'm only interested in the frontmatter values.

NodeJS seems to support line-by-line reading: https://nodejs.org/api/readline.html#readline_example_read_file_stream_line_by_line

Looks like I'll just use that and use a yaml parser
