Yes we keep the old tnode size and the convergence interval was some of the concerns. That why this checks was added. Still we want to inflate the root node to a very max. So this approach with halving or doubling tnodes towards the root node was the suggest by Dyntree paper. I asked Stefan (one of the authors) if we could get safe and very offensive settings. But from what I understood there was no easy way to calculate this. So any bright ideas in this area are very welcome. But we should also monitor size of root and average tree depth so we don't take an to defensive approach just to solve this case.
Yes, but with this offensive approach it seems the current level of warnings could be too alarming. Btw., because of a design flaw in my current patch this _fix variable, which should be logically per trie/ table, can be reset by changes of other tables now, but I think it all could be fine tuned more in the future. Of course if there are people interested in testing/reporting this more. Thanks, Jarek P.
