[netCDF #RXZ-619984]: big size of netcdf file

Hi,

You can write netCDF files "step by step", or even a single value at a time.  
Since netCDF is based on direct access rather than sequential access, you can 
write netCDF data in any order, for example a 2D variable by columns even if it 
is stored by rows.  It is somewhat more efficient to write netCDF data in the 
same order it is stored on disk, but it's not necessary.

There's a simple example of writing multiple "records" of netCDF data from 
various language interfaces in the examples under "Write some four-dimensional 
variables using a record dimension ..." on the web page of example programs:
