Should we directly zip the output files from simona

[danielfeismann]

Since I just realised that pandas 'read_csv' also supports zip compression it's quite easy and convinient to implement zipped csv data in analysis of simulations. I guess this would be as well easy to implement into pypsdm though. Thus IMHO it would be a good idea to add compression to the simona outputs.

But there might be issues I'm not aware of. So lets discuss, what do you think @sebastian-peter @jo-bao @t-ober?

Sounds good. Another way to save space would be to use databases, because they use efficient data types besides just text.

[danielfeismann]

True. Doing both or offering both options is also fine for me :) .

[t-ober]

Might be worth a try. I don't see any obvious downsides.
