I ran parallel hop on Ranger with this an it was faster than the previous version. It gave identically sized HDF5 files for my halo data, which is good, but I'm guessing since things might have been computed and saved in a different order the md5 sums don't match. To be really sure, I'd have to do a group-by-group comparison, but the fact that the sizes are the same says that the same number of groups and particles in each group were found both times.
