Objective

Exchanging data between XNAT and Slicer is currently very slow. We will identify and begin resolving bottlenecks in the current FetchMI module and Remote I/O pipeline.

Approach, Plan

• Profile data downloads in the FetchMI module and in Slicer's RemoteIO pipeline.
• Walk through the FetchMI code to see how the XNAT API is being utilized. Optimize.
• Determine ways to optimize Slicer's RemoteIO pipeline.

Progress

Progress will be rapid, possibly ferocious.
