Vote Option 1 (Disseminate)
I am hoping the community can give feedback on my concern, which is the order of the dimensions (I prefer n x 3 for example, not 3 x n which is in the document).
Regards,
Anna.

Subject: APT-HDF5 vote
Hi all,
As required by our charter, I am calling for a renewed vote for the
following action:
To disseminate the current draft standard on APT-HDF, for a "Request for
comments" phase from the community, where we invite the wider community
to review the document.
The proposed standard and the associated software links will be provided
as part of the mailout. Dissemination will be via the ISC, likely the
IFES mailing list.
The publicly visible standard document is here:
Option 1: Disseminate the Draft standard
Option 2: Withhold the Draft standard for further revisions.
Please indicate in your response:
"Vote : Option X", where X is 1 or 2
If there are small errors that should be corrected, please directly
modify the document, rather than on-list discussion. If you believe
further revisions are needed, we can discuss this separately to your vote.
I'm told that the document above can be hosted on the IFES website, but
am waiting for the SC to actually upload.
Please do submit your vote as soon as possible.
Thanks,
Daniel

Hi all,
I did a quick test in matlab just to check that the order didn’t matter for writing real data:
Write 4 by 7.5E7 ions Elapsed time is 28.779395 seconds.
Write 7.5E7 by 4 ions Elapsed time is 26.822038 seconds.
>> hdf5_speed_test
Read 4 by 7.5E7 ions Elapsed time is 1.156697 seconds.
Read 7.5E7 by 4 ions Elapsed time is 1.058228 seconds.
Markus, was your concern about reading chunks of ions? I.e. you want [x1 y1 z1 m1] [x2 …] etc.?

Hi Markus,
It was more a check to see if there was a “big” difference, I wasn’t expecting one in this case.
Here are some repeats (results are the same order as before) on my EVO 850 SSD:
Elapsed time is 25.275998 seconds.
Elapsed time is 32.303804 seconds.
Elapsed time is 1.458578 seconds.
Elapsed time is 2.039367 seconds.
Elapsed time is 31.956768 seconds.
Elapsed time is 34.489801 seconds.
Elapsed time is 12.113823 seconds. ?? Not sure what happened here, repeated and got 1.2s for both
Elapsed time is 10.779811 seconds. ??
My mechanical drive seems to have similar or slightly faster write times, but much slower read:
write
Elapsed time is 23.640609 seconds.
Elapsed time is 29.379307 seconds.
read
Elapsed time is 25.644544 seconds.
Elapsed time is 21.093204 seconds.
(read repeat)
Elapsed time is 26.773547 seconds.
Elapsed time is 25.577893 seconds.
I think this is all rather in the detail. I would be willing to blame matlab quirks for not writing at full speed (windows recons I’m only writing at 12% capacity on the ssd?).
It all depends what the use case actually is, and whether it will have a significant impact or not. I would say the write speeds are similar enough, same for read, although 4xn was consistently faster than nx4.
If someone wants to benchmark the C++ implementation – be my guest!
But I do think we should try and get it right first time if we can. It would be annoying to have to be backwards compatible because of some silly mistake.
If the specification changes then we can check using the version to make sure readers can see if the version is supported.
Andy
