Hi Erik.
I was originally using out3D_vars etc, but the resulting output was always *chunked* and *cumulative* over time. I don't see a parameter that controls this behavior in CarpetIOHDF5/param.ccl.

CarpetIOHDF5 has two output modes. You can either set out_vars, giving the traditional chunked output, or you can set out3D_vars, which uses a different output mechanism and slightly different file names. The latter may be unchunked by default. (I hope.)
(There is also out1D_vars and out2D_vars.)

Hi. Silly question time:
I'd like to write some grid functions to disk as HDF5 3D files that are *unchunked*, but one per output time step. This I'm doing by setting the following parameters:
IOUtil::out_mode = "onefile" IOUtil::out_timesteps_per_file = 1
However, an unexpected (to me) side-effect of this is that my checkpoint files are now also unchunked, which leads to longer recovery (and occasionally failure).
So ... can I have chunked checkpoint files, but unchunked everything else 3D using CarpetIOHDF5?
Thanks,
