`xargs -P100` specifies to use up to 100 parallel workers but as we only have 30 files, the number of workers will be only 30.
- For every file, `xargs` will run a script with `bash -c`. The script has substitution in form of `{}` and the `xargs` command will substitute the filename to it (we have asked it for `xargs` with `-I{}`).
- The script will decompress the file (`gzip -c -d "{}"`) to standard output (`-c` parameter) and the output is redirected to `clickhouse-client`.
- We also asked to parse [DateTime](../../sql-reference/data-types/datetime.md) fields with extended parser ([--date_time_input_format best_effort](../../operations/settings/settings.md#settings-date_time_input_format)) to recognize ISO-8601 format with timezone offsets.

Finally, `clickhouse-client` will do insertion. It will read input data in [CSVWithNames](../../interfaces/formats.md#csvwithnames) format.

## CSV {#csv}
Comma Separated Values format ([RFC](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4180)).
When formatting, rows are enclosed in double quotes. A double quote inside a string is output as two double quotes in a row. There are no other rules for escaping characters. Date and date-time are enclosed in double quotes. Numbers are output without quotes. Values are separated by a delimiter character, which is `,` by default. The delimiter character is defined in the setting [format_csv_delimiter](/docs/en/operations/settings/settings.md/#format_csv_delimiter). Rows are separated using the Unix line feed (LF). Arrays are serialized in CSV as follows: first, the array is serialized to a string as in TabSeparated format, and then the resulting string is output to CSV in double quotes. Tuples in CSV format are serialized as separate columns (that is, their nesting in the tuple is lost).

\*By default, the delimiter is `,`. See the [format_csv_delimiter](/docs/en/operations/settings/settings-formats.md/#format_csv_delimiter) setting for more information.
When parsing, all values can be parsed either with or without quotes. Both double and single quotes are supported. Rows can also be arranged without quotes. In this case, they are parsed up to the delimiter character or line feed (CR or LF). In violation of the RFC, when parsing rows without quotes, the leading and trailing spaces and tabs are ignored. For the line feed, Unix (LF), Windows (CR LF) and Mac OS Classic (CR LF) types are all supported.
`NULL` is formatted according to setting [format_csv_null_representation](/docs/en/operations/settings/settings.md/#format_csv_null_representation) (default value is `\N`).

The JSON is compatible with JavaScript. To ensure this, some characters are additionally escaped: the slash `/` is escaped as `\/`; alternative line breaks `U+2028` and `U+2029`, which break some browsers, are escaped as `\uXXXX`. ASCII control characters are escaped: backspace, form feed, line feed, carriage return, and horizontal tab are replaced with `\b`, `\f`, `\n`, `\r`, `\t` , as well as the remaining bytes in the 00-1F range using `\uXXXX` sequences. Invalid UTF-8 sequences are changed to the replacement character <20> so the output text will consist of valid UTF-8 sequences.

See [input_format_allow_errors_num](/docs/en/operations/settings/settings.md/#input_format_allow_errors_num) and

Limitations:
- In case of parsing error `JSONEachRow` skips all data until the new line (or EOF), so rows must be delimited by `\n` to count errors correctly.
- `Template` and `CustomSeparated` use delimiter after the last column and delimiter between rows to find the beginning of next row, so skipping errors works only if at least one of them is not empty.

It allows for avoiding issues with large `INSERT` queries.
