Hi,
I obtained the files for run 4013 that Achyut provided in the directory:
/lustre/expphy/volatile/clas12/akhanal/rga_data/run4013/filtered_farm/Run004013
These files were bank filtered to have All the "REC::......"
banks,"RUN::config" and "FT::particles".
The total size of these files is 199G. Way too big!!
We can't operate like this.
There are 207 files.
As an example, a single file: out_clas_004013.evio.0_9.root is 995M
I did some additional bank filtering to reduce that file to 299M. This is
still too big.
After the additional bank filtering I required a REC_ForwardTagger hit.
This got the size down 6.3M. This we can work with.
When I then required 2 or more charged tracks, the size went down to 4.4M
If all of the files scale like this single file, our 199G for all files
in the
/lustre/expphy/volatile/clas12/akhanal/rga_data/run4013/filtered_farm/Run004013
directory would reduce down to 880M.
At the very least, we need to get setup to do filtering that requires a
REC_ForwardTagger hit. The events that do not contain a hit in the forward
tagger are just wasting space.
Take care,
Michael
