Hi again,
I haven't been getting the updates via email so I'm attempting to post
again to respond.
Thanks everyone for the suggestions. I have a few questions:
1. What is the benefit of using the stand-alone carray project (
https://github.com/FrancescAlted/carray) vs Pytables.carray?
2. I realized my code base never uses the query functionality of a Table.
So, I changed all my columns to be just Pytables.carray objects instead.
They are all sitting at the top of the hierarchy, just below root. Is
this a good idea?
I see a big speed increase from this obviously because now everything is
stored contiguously. However, are there any downsides to doing this? I
suppose I could also use EArray, but we are never actually changing the
data once it is stored in HDF5.
3. Is compression automatically happening with the Carray? I know the
documentation says that compression is supported, but what do I need to do
to enable it? Maybe it's already happening and this is contributing to my
big speed improvement.
4. I would certainly love to take a look at contributing something like
this in my free time. I don't have a whole lot at this time so the changes
could take a while. I'm sure I need to learn a lot more about the codebase
before really giving it a try. I'm going to take a look at this though,
thanks for the suggestion!
5. How do I subscribe to the dev mailing list? I only see announcements
and users.
6. Any idea why I'm not getting the emails from the list? I signed up 2
days ago and didn't get any of your replies via email.
Thanks!
