Hi,

I have realised compression tests from only HDF5 library.
In these tests the size of chunks are varied in the following way:

1) Firstly, I have changed the size of chunks with even values: 10*10, 12*12, 14*14, 16*16, etc; 2)Secondly, I have modified the size of chunks with odd values: 11*11, 13*13, 15*15, 17*17, etc.

I have got 2 graphic lines. Please find enclosed the file called "dataset_square_sdisk_pair_impair_1000.png"

The x numbers are the size of chunks in octets.
The y numbers are the size of file in the disk in bytes


-The red line represents chunks with an even size (10*10,12*12,...);
-The green line represents chunks with an odd size (11*11, 13*13, etc).

My question is: Do we have a reason that would explain why we observe a better performance in the disk storage with chunks of an even size that an odd size ?

Thanks you,

Rolih
