When working with large datasets, you often need to perform aggregations without loading the entire file into memory. One common task is to sum the values of a specific column in a very large CSV file. Since the file may not fit in memory, you can process it in manageable chunks using `pandas` `read_csv()` function with the `chunksize` parameter. 

For each chunk, you calculate the sum of the desired column, then aggregate these partial sums to get the total. This approach is efficient and scalable, allowing you to handle files of virtually any size as long as each chunk fits into memory.
