Through careful tuning of Lustre parameters, SWIFT can write snapshots at the maximal disk writing speed of a given system. + + +### Logger + +In SWIFT, we developed a new way of writing the information contained in +snapshots (Hausammann and Gonnet (in prep.)). +In cosmological simulations, the time scale of the different particles +can differ by a few order of magnitudes. +This technique reduces the data entropy by writing the particles according +to their own time scale. +SWIFT is able this way to increase the time resolution of the output while +keeping the files to a decent size. + +<div class="videowrapper"><iframe width="100%" height="100%" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/6aBry0CUgVw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> +</div>
