Well, you can always try doing it and profile and try to optimize the
code in case that you are discontent with the results. The beauty of
python is that it can do complicated things with relatively low effort
;-)

If you end doing something that you think is worth adding in pytables,
do not hesitate to contribute it back to the community.

Luck!
