osobhandClaude Opus 5.5 bf4aefcd00 format: a one-thread pool decodes on the caller only; keep 1 MiB scratch
Review follow-ups. With run_with_helpers a one-thread rayon pool gave each
read a second core (the caller plus the worker), so --decode-threads 1 no
longer matched h5py's one core per call; such a pool now adds no helper.
Per-thread decode scratch is kept up to 1 MiB per buffer (was 4 MiB),
bounding what never-exiting pool workers hold.

crates.io docs.rs

Pure-Rust HDF5 binary format parsing and writing — no C dependencies.

Features

  • Zero-copy superblock, object header, and B-tree parsing
  • Chunked dataset read/write with filter pipelines
  • no_std support (disable std feature)
  • Optional parallel reads via Rayon
  • SHA-256 provenance tracking

Usage

use clawhdf5_format::Superblock;

let data = std::fs::read("data.h5").unwrap();
let sb = Superblock::from_bytes(&data).unwrap();
println!("HDF5 version {}.{}", sb.version_major(), sb.version_minor());
