Re: Issue with writing large data out to netCDF

Hi all,

Neither of Wei's suggestions worked.

I'm trying a run with the setfileoption calls (both calls, per Wei's
suggestions) before the addfile command, as that's what my interpretation
of the documentation would suggest as the next logical step with the "nc"
option everyone has mentioned. Any other suggestions here are certainly
welcome, as well.
