Determine appropriate chunk sizes for a given xarray dataset based on target chunk size and chunk aspect ratio

Project description

# dynamic_chunks

Determine appropriate chunk sizes for a given xarray dataset based on target chunk size and ‘chunk aspect ratio’

The chunk aspect ratio describes the amount of chunks along a given dimension. Take a dataset with two dimensions (a and b). A chunk aspect ratio {‘a’:2, ‘b’:1} means that the number of total chunks along b is twice that of b. This concept was inspired by a discussion with [Rich Signell](https://github.com/rsignell-usgs) at Scipy ‘23. The idea is that one might want to optimize the chunking of a dataset to make e.g. an operation along time n times slower than an operation along spatial dimensions.
