[yt-users] pickling clumps

[Charles Hansen]

The find_clumps function is working correctly for me I believe, but the 
analysis takes a very long time and I'd like to save the master_clump 
object (from 
http://yt.enzotools.org/doc/cookbook/recipes.html#cookbook-find-clumps) 
for further analysis.  I've tried pickling master_clump.  It dumps 
correctly, but gives an EOF error (below) on loading.  Is there another 
way to save master_clump?

Thanks,
Charles
