Hi All,

What is the best way to read a large dataset? I am performing parallel 
computations, so the mesh is broken into multiple smaller pieces, but it is 
also possible to re-assemble these pieces into one large piece in a 
post-processing step.

The results could also be stored in multiple files corresponding to different 
time steps, or in one big file containing all the time steps. So it is possible 
to decompose in space and/or time.

Does ParaView read data in parallel regardless of whether the file is 
decomposed in space and/or time? Would it be faster to read decomposed files 
vs. reading one large file?

Any ideas?

Thanks very much,
