Hi Everybody,
regardless of the availability or not of the hbook disk space, I think we
need to seriously consider the option of saving only events with an
energetic lepton or photon. I would also consider applying a purity cut
(looser than the final one) at the ntuple generation level.

I would say that, assuming we use PID weighting for PID systematics, the
semileptonic and b->s gamma analyses would not be affected.

While I test the filter to do this, does anybody see any drawback on such
a decision?
	ciao
	ric
