If you just want static data, using jsroot or jsfive might be a better option.

I think you missed the main part: the dataset is not in memory. This is not SQLite-in-the-browser but using a virtual file system over HTTP. Neither of those alternatives do anything similar.

  • Same with those! They'll just grab the chunks they need (also with range requests) to do what you want from binary ROOT or (presumably, I haven't actually used jsfive) HDF5 files.
