Hi John:
No, it actually probably improves the performance, but it all depends on what
the read request is. A netcdf-3 file has only 2 possible layouts, namely with
and without an unlimited dimension. see slide 4 of this:
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/staff/caron/presentations/NetCDFworkshop2012.pptx
its helpful for analysing performance to understand which your files have, is
probably the point made at the TDS workshop.
