The idea is to request as much data as possible from the same tape file. The natural way to group requests would be:
all parameters, all levels, all members, all time-steps for 1 hindcast date for a type of level for a type

(warning) Note the following:

  1. 'all' means 'all' that the user wants. It doesn't have to be all parameters.
  2. If a user is interested only on z500,  he may request more hindcast dates in one go, since the overall request will not be so big.

Best practise to iterate over all hindcastDates of several hindcastYears for

Info

(lightbulb) The best approach is to iterate over the hindcastYears. For each hindcastYear iterate over all the available hindcastMonths and for each hindcastMonth iterate over all the available hindcastDays.
