Description
The basf2 software framework has been developed the Belle II
experiment, the next generation B-factory experiment at the KEK
Laboratory. Belle II will collect 50 times more data than the previous
Belle experiment and has a commensurate increase in computing
requirements.
Consequently Belle II has adopted a distributed computing solution to
provide the computing resources required of the experiment. The
interface is called gbasf2 and is designed to provide an easy
transition from an analysis done with basf2 to an analysis performed
on the grid. The output of the raw data processing are mDST files,
consisting of all relevant information for physics analyses. Another
file format called $\mu$DST has been proposed which also records the
reconstructed particle information.
We present a study of physics analysis with gbasf2 and compare the performance
of the analysis methods which employ mDST and $\mu$DST files on grid
sites and on local resources.
