output size with FD size #19

Open dguff opened 1 year ago

dguff commented 1 year ago

When running the simulation with a large detector (FD-VD configuration), the output file size is significantly larger than the one of a smaller detector. We may consider of restructoring the event structure by filling a map of Anode/SuperCell events only when a detection unit is hit

If disk space becomes an issue, we may consider reducing the data size of the information stored. As an example, the ionization electrons drift time is saved as a float, but it is unlikely we need a sub-ns time resolution for that and a short int can be good enough. (see #28)
