Francesc, Firstly, thanks for the great work you all are doing with PyTables. I really appreciate the manuals, website and the easy-to-use API.
What about using these public datasets hosted at Amazon? http://aws.amazon.com/publicdatasets/ I image that setting up the code to access these datasets is not too easy, which is why I haven't used them myself just yet, but I plan to look into it soon. However, these datasets seem to be what you need: 'real' data that are publicly available for demonstrating benchmarks. Regards, Kevin ------ Hi, As you know, I used to show PyTables capabilities by using benchmarks. However, until now all the data I have been using is synthetic (mainly random data), and I'd like to start using real data for performing new experiments and make them public (be in written form or in videos). I think that would make the benchmarks more realistic and useful for everybody. So, if anybody has large datasets (preferrably in tabular form), or know of any data source that is public, I'd be glad to hear about of it. Thanks! -- Francesc Alted ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _______________________________________________ Pytables-users mailing list Pytables-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/pytables-users
