Checkpointing off by default

Hi,

I saw that checkpointing is disabled by default. I'd like to know (out
of scientific curiosity) why we decided to have this as default.

Best,
Sebastian

I'd say because the default job/scenario/use case is not long-lasting.
Maybe it's somebody running an example, and you do not want to penalize
default behaviour with checkpointing overhead?

My 2 cents.
