Efficiency of NetCDF reading and writing functions.

Hello everyone,

I was wondering about how efficient the NetCDF reading and writing
functions are. In particular, it should be possible to use the NetCDF
functions:

nc_get_varm_type and
nc_put_varm_type

to read and write any arbitrary array of NetCDF data. My question is, is
it less efficient to use the put/get_varm functions than using one of the
more "specialised" functions (put_var1, put_var, put_vars, put_vara etc)?
