+molecular dynamics trajectory data for analysis. Instead, the speed of writing to disk and
 the ability to share generated data provide new constraints on research in this field.
 While exposing download links on the open internet offers one solution this problem,
 molecular dynamics trajectories are often massive files which are slow to download and expensive
