There is no nice way to index when taking a transect, it is essentially random access. Loading the data before indexing will make it faster, but loading the entire animation dataset can fail if remote servers have request size limits. By loading the data frame by frame we reach a middle ground: the data will still be indexed relatively quickly but remote servers won't baulk at sending half a gig of data at a time.
