![]() With Binary Inline, the header information is distributed throughout the file which requires scanning through the entire file to gather the header information. Why? Tecplot 360 only needs to read the header information at the top of the file to understand what is going to be loaded. If you’re going to write VTK data, consider using Binary Appended as this is the most efficient format for post-processors to read. This experience will depend on disk speed, network bandwidth, and CPU. Since the disk is often the bottleneck, compression/decompression can be handled in parallel on the CPU. ![]() That said, you might see faster read/write times with compressed files. Whether or not you use compression will depend on whether file size or performance is more important. Compression is great for reducing file size, but requires CPU-time to compress/decompress data when writing/reading the file. The VTK file formats also support various forms of compression. ![]() Binary Appended – This format organizes all the XML header information at the top of the file, while all the heavyweight data is at the bottom of the file. ![]()
