Hi, Trying to evaluate compression filters, I was looking for a call in PyTables to get the size of a dataset (in bytes). As I didn't find it I remembered the many benchmarks and found instead [1] that the way to do it is to create single-dataset files and interrogate the filesystem. Curiously enough, I didn't find that feature either in h5ls, hdfview or ViTables. Is there a structural reason why this size cannot be computed from library calls?
