The data must have the same dimensions. Otherwise the signals are stacked over the axis given by its integer index or its name.

It is possible to store the data in a memory mapped temporary file instead of in memory setting mmap_mode. mmap: bool If True and stack is True, then the data is stored in a memory-mapped temporary file.The memory-mapped data is stored on disk, and not directly loaded into memory. Memory mapping is especially useful for accessing small fragments of large files without reading the entire file into memory. mmap_dir : string If mmap_dir is not None, and stack and mmap are True, the memory mapped file will be created in the given directory, otherwise the default directory is used.
