[Paraview] Optimizing time-step write time for FEM code

Dear Paraview,

I am thinking of optimizing our time-animation, as writing it takes a lot of time.

We use both VTK and PVTU/VTU formats to write our data.

At the moment, we write complete mesh + vector field for each time step, thus creating a series of files.

An obvious optimization would be to write the geometry only once, and for every time step only to write the field.

Could you suggest if this is possible, and, if yes, a nice way to do this.

Kind regards,
