bad time to be named Al
apparently I need to follow some math rock people? just "discovered" Angine de Poitrine by ending up at their sold-out show and turns out I like maximum-intensity drumming and music that is trying to break your brain?
oh it's, like, actually 9x9 x 21x21 models
some Choices were definitely Made here.
PSF model -- 189 x 189 pixels x 144 chips
oh wow, the Euclid spacecraft's VIS calibrated single-frame images have 432 FITS extensions of 2k x 2k - 7 GB in size - 36 chips x 4 quadrants x 2k x 2k x (image, weight map, background estimate)

About
Astronomer/IT staff at Perimeter Institute. Farm-raised left-handed vegetarian Canadian socialist & dad-joke appreciator.
I work on big sky surveys in the optical and radio. Currently busy with the DESI survey which is taking tens of millions of galaxy spectra; and CHIME & CHORD, groundbreaking Canadian radio-astronomy experiments. I like making our data publicly available; you can browse the imaging survey we did for DESI here:
