[Rtk-users] Blurred piece-wise reconstruction

[vincent]

Hi Simon,

yes, I used both in my command line.  I have 64 Go RAM on the machine, 
so that shouldn't be the issue.  For the sake of completeness, I also 
tried the subset option in combination with the divisions option, going 
as low as 1, but to no avail.

I'll investigate further tomorrow.

Thank you again for your help,

Vincent
