HDF5 supports a "compact" storage option. It helps a lot with parallel I/O performance, but may only be used for small variables (< 64 MB).
See #1554 for prototype implementation by @gsjaardema, who suggested this feature.
This can be accomplished without API changes. Currently we have two constants for nc_def_var_chunking():
/** In HDF5 files you can set storage for each variable to be either
* contiguous or chunked, with nc_def_var_chunking(). This define is
* used there. */
/**@{*/
#define NC_CHUNKED 0
#define NC_CONTIGUOUS 1
/**@}*/
By adding NC_COMPACT as a third constant, we can enable compact storage for users.
This feature is backward compatible to HDF5 1.8.x.
