Hi there, I am switching to using PyTables for some image-processing work to store some intermediate data, namely binary masks, in a structured/ hierarchical way.
I've got about 182MB worth of binary PNG files, and when I store them as CArrays, even with zlib or bzip2 complevel=9, they balloon to >400MB. This isn't a huge deal (disk space is cheap and I can always just compress the h5 file afterward if I need to transfer it somewhere, that seems to almost cut the file size in half) but does anyone have any tips for storing large arrays of BoolAtoms efficiently?
