[Feature]: Optimize postprocessing_E3SM_data_for_single_sites.py to improve to_netcdf() performance #914
Description
Is your feature request related to a problem?
In PR #907, postprocess_E3SM_data_for_single_sites.py was refactored to resolve chunking issues related to time_bounds. In the process, the script was re-written to replace CDAT with Xarray/xCDAT. The script works and was tested with v3 data, but the to_netcdf() performance is slow.
