++h(2, "disabling") Disabling pipeline components

+p
+    |  If you don't need a particular component of the pipeline – for
+    |  example, the tagger or the parser, you can disable loading it. This can
+    |  sometimes make a big difference and improve loading speed. Disabled
+    |  component names can be provided to #[code spacy.load], #[code from_disk]
+    |  or the #[code nlp] object itself as a list:
+
++code.

+
+p
+    |  Note that you can't write directly to #[code nlp.pipeline], as this list
+    |  holds the #[em actual components], not the IDs. However, if you know the
+    |  order of the components, you can still slice the list:

++code.

+        |  and #[code entity] keyword arguments have been replaced with
+        |  #[code disable], which takes a list of
