Have you been using the default scheduler (multiprocessing for dask.bag) or the distributed scheduler?,"{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,304201107

This is the approach I took during my initial tests. It would be great if we could use the threading library too but that does seem less applicable given the current state of the HDF library. ,"{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,304201107

One potential challenge is global locking with HDF5. If opening many datasets is slow because much data needs to get read with HDF5, then multiple threads will not help -- you'll need to use multiple processes, e.g., with dask-distributed.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,304201107
