Dear Peter,
thank you for your reply.
That might work for me, I'll look into it.
As a side note, if I convert the Mol into RWMol, I don't get the warning
anymore (but then I cannot read the molecules anymore...)
Cheers,
Jose Manuel

you might be better off not storing the molecule RDkit objects
themselves in the hdf file; but rather some other representation of
the molecule. If you need 3D atom coordinates, you could call
MolToMolBlock() on each of the rdkit mols, and then MolFromMolBlock
later to regenerate them. If you don't need 3D atom coordinates to get
saved, SMILES strings would work well.
PyTables is expecting each entry to be something like an 'int',
'string', 'float64', etc. So the RDKit mol object is a fairly odd data
structure for that library; and it's just warning you that it will
have to use Python's `pickle` module to serialize it.

Hi all,
I am working on some molecules in a pandas DataFrame and have to
export
them to a hdf file.
This works just fine but I get a warning about Performance due to
mixed
types. (1)
Why are RDKIT Mol objects causing this warning in the first place?
Am I
doing something wrong?
Please find attached a small notebook with an example.
For now I set the type of hdf to 'table', but I'm unsure this is the
best work-around.
Also, invoking pytest with --disable-warnings flag removes the
message
but the warning itself remains.
Thanks in advance for any hindsight!
Cheers,
Jose Manuel
(1) PerformanceWarning:
your performance may suffer as PyTables will pickle object types
that it
cannot
map directly to c-types [inferred_type->mixed,key->values]
[items->None]
return pytables.to_hdf(path_or_buf, key, self, **kwargs)
