Hi,

exeriment obcs_ctrl looks less easy. The additional recomputations come
from "the_main_loop" with this message:
>  The responsible variables are : obeu,obev,obnu,obnv,obsu,obsv,obwu,obwv
Now, one thing I noticed is that in autodiff_store/_restore.F
and in obcs_ad_check_lev1_dir.h, we store the OB fields for T & S 
but do not store the OB fields for U & V.
May be this is the reason ?

Cheers,
Jean-Michel
