Output Blocks

The namelist, pass1.nam, governing which blocks are written should be in in the UCM defaults_pass1 library.

Average block sizes taken from tape number 3606 run 10707 PASS1_3 tape. Sizes are in 16-bit words, i.e. 2 Bytes. Both the average block size per event (over all events) [A] and the actual block size (when a block exists) are given [B].

Note that the total output size is not given by the last number as there are other overheads not included here. (The overhead for this tape was about 2.4% - Total output size was 4288009452 bytes for 968561 events).
