I think something like that is a great idea!

Hi,
I think the current default chuck cache size behaviour of HDF5 is
inadequate for the type of data it is typically used with.
This is specially a problem when using compression as most
users/readers will not set any chunk cache and cause endless
decompression calls. I think this hinders the use of compression and
other kinds of filters.
I would like to propose that when a dataset is opened its chuck cache
be set to the largest of the file chunk cache (the one set with
H5Pset_cache) and the dataset chunk size.
I think this would be beneficial for the vast majority of the workloads.
Cheers,
Filipe
