Dear PIConGPU users,

this is your periodic reminder to please

  Compress your HDF5 Files

after running your jobs.

Compressing HDF5 files (from --hdf5 but also from phase space output)
not only saves space but also speeds up your post-processing scripts
since less data needs to be read from disk.

Here is a script for bash & PBS:
