Suppose you load a NetCDF file with the **chunks** parameter: ``` python ds = xr.open_dataset(""my_data.nc"", decode_cf=False, chunks={'lon': 10, 'lat': 10}) ``` The data is loaded as dask arrays, as expected. But if we then manually call `xarray.decode_cf()`, it'll eagerly load the data.

Saving a Dataset to disk - even when it's a Dataset that was directly read in from a netCDF file with a record dimension - seems to destroy any indication that there was a record dimension. For instance, reading in CESM output tapes and then immediately saving them to disk demotes ""time"" from being a record dimension.
