Right, but in my case the data won't often fit in memory.
If you have a rather simple space problem and the data
can be organized in some simple fashion without HDF,
then why not think about just memory mapped files
or simply rely on system's paging capabilities.
(Probably you really want to do it using HDF...)
Yes, I do. I really like HDF5 query abilities, transparent compression.
But most importantly, I can H5Ocopy data to permanent storage!
