Problematic data structure #42
Description
We are having a LOT of problems because of the unnecessarily complicated data structures. A few clear problems:
- when one channel triggers all the other channels get populated with empty entries
- loading and analyzing of the data is possible only after loading the shared object files that describe the data structure. This makes it impossible (or very hard) to analyze the data on other machines
Currently we have dedicated scripts that have to "filter" the data and write it into a simple TTree.
Instead, I strongly recommend we abandon this data structure and instead write the output to a simple TTree. This will save a lot of headache down the road in the analysis.
