So somewhere you must have some DataArrays in places where there should be none (in attrs, e.g.) I think it has to be something like that. I'll see if I can dig into what these Datasets look like. I'm sure we can get away with fewer deep copies here. I think it's something like we're caching generated Datasets between different test cases, but some of them need to modify them so they're deep copied. I guess previously that was fine, but maybe now it's just cheaper to make new instances from scratch.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0,

tests all pass, but there is something like a x20 slowdown, and it's basically entirely due to copies. It's plausible we're doing way too many copies as it is, but this is obviously still concerning. I tried adding the following asv benchmark, based off the `combine` benchmark and the deepcopy tests: ```py class Copy: def setup(self): """"""Create 4 datasets with two different variables"""""" t_size, x_size, y_size = 50, 450, 400 t = np.arange(t_size) data = np.random.randn(t_size, x_size, y_size) self.ds = xr.Dataset( {""A"": xr.DataArray(data, coords={""T"": t}, dims=(""T"", ""X"", ""Y""))} ) def time_copy(self) -> None: copy(self.ds) def time_deepcopy(self) -> None: deepcopy(self.ds) def time_copy_method(self) -> None: self.ds.copy(deep=False) def time_copy_method_deep(self) -> None: self.ds.copy(deep=True) ``` But I didn't see any regressions between `v2022.06.0..HEAD`, so that simplistic case is clearly not enough. There are a few differences between our test datasets and the one in the benchmark above: - 4D vs 3D - smaller grid: (2, 5, 4, 3) vs (50, 450, 400) - more variables: ~20 vs 1 - variable attributes vs none - multiple files read in via `open_mfdataset` vs entirely in-memory ","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0,
