// The first time we (try to) find a given horizon, our initial
// guess is likely to be rather inaccurate, so we may need a // larger number of iterations. But if we've found this horizon // before, then we have its previous position as an initial guess, // so we shouldn't need as many iterations. git-svn-id: http://svn.einsteintoolkit.org/cactus/EinsteinAnalysis/AHFinderDirect/trunk@795 f88db872-0e4f-0410-b76b-b9085cfa78c5
