Hi Rob,

So probably HDF5 library uses path resolution whenever dataset read process 
executed?
But in my code, for no hierarchy there is no need to do that process by the 
library since the dataset directly can be accessed from "root" group, which 
means that the process must be shorter to open and read dataset. What do you 
think?

Thanks for replying.

Regards,
Elisa

the graph is interesting, though: writing either way is essentially
the same.  it's the read case that is taking significantly longer.

could there be anything in the way HDF5 resolves groups?  In UNIX
land, path resolution happens directory by directory.
