Hi Ioan,

In order to help troubleshoot what is going on, we could coordinate a test
where you turned server tracing on (TRACE=1 in McIDAS-X).  This will cause
a log file to be written on the server that I could then examine to see
if anything obvious jumps out.

By the way, yesterday afternoon I installed an updated version of Unidata
McIDAS-X v2017 (very near release) that may or may not contain code
modifications that affect the transfers to your Python client.  Please
re-test your Python code again to see if it works correctly now.

I'll pass this along to our Python developers and ask them to take a look.
Thanks!

Can you elaborate on how it performed better than McIDAS-X?

Cheers,

Tom
