Hi Ed

Apologies if this isn't the right forum, but this item really caught
our attention.  As someone working on parallel-netcdf, I'd sure like
to hear more about anything that speeds things up 22%.  What did you
do to achieve this?   You've been busy and the diff between
netcdf-3.6.1 and netcdf-3.6.2-beta6 is pretty big.
