[IDD #TTR-495389]: Slow access to local datasets through ADDE



Hi Samuel,

I always try to not break things ;-)

Yup.  You will need to make changes both to the dataset definitions AND to
the LDM pqact processing.  The ADDE dataset changes should be very easy as
the DSSERVE commands that were run to create the datasets in the first place
should be available in ~mcidas/data/LSSERVE.BAT.  You can make a copy of
this file and make the changes to each dataset in the copy:

<as 'mcidas'>
cd $MCDATA
cp ~/data/LSSERVE.BAT MYSERVE.BAT
-- edit MYSERVE.BAT and make any/all changes needed to match revamped LDM
   pqact processing actions
batch.k MYSERVE.BAT

Please note that you can run BATCH (batch.k) over and over again until you
are satisfied with your definitions.

Very good.

The \CURDAY construct will have nothing to do with the loading of those images 
in the
IDV.  \CURDAY only helps to reduce the number of images that the server has to 
look
at to come up with a time-sorted list of files in the dataset.

The GINI 1km Vis images (East and West) are BIG.  Uncompressed they are on the
order of 17 MB each.  Loading the entire image into the IDV requires lots of 
memory,
so you may need to modify your IDV's startup to be able to use more memory.  
Details
of doing this and other things in the IDV are available in the IDV Users Guide 
and/or
online workshop materials.

Cheers,

Tom
