code
```python
from tqdm import tqdm
import xarray as xr
from time import perf_counter
import numpy as np
N = 1000
# Everybody is lazy loading now, so lets force modules to get instantiated
dummy_dataset = xr.Dataset()
dummy_dataset['a'] = 1
dummy_dataset['b'] = 1
del dummy_dataset
time_elapsed = np.zeros(N)
# dataset = xr.Dataset()
dataset = {}
for i in tqdm(range(N)):
# for i in range(N):
time_start = perf_counter()
dataset[f""var{i}""] = i
time_end = perf_counter()
time_elapsed[i] = time_end - time_start
# %%
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
plt.plot(np.arange(N), time_elapsed * 1E6, label='Time to add one variable')
plt.xlabel(""Number of existing variables"")
plt.ylabel(""Time to add a variables (us)"")
plt.ylim([0, 10])
plt.title(""Dictionary insertion"")
plt.grid(True)
```

I think xarray gives me 3 order of magnitude of ""thinking"" benefit, so I'll take it!

I wasn't able to find something that really benchmarked ""large"" datasets.
> Would be a good benchmark to add if we don't have one already.
Added one.
