    55Discovered for many inputs into ppStack (i.e., deep and even refstacks), that the PSF in the output convolved stack grows with the number of inputs beyond the initial target PSF.
    6 Had been missed due to convolved stacks really only being used for magic, but was noticed with some M31 analysis and deepstacks of MD04. Memory use has also been an issue with the deepstacks and was simultaneously being investigated.

    8 Test example: MD04 skycell.055 somewhere, ~100 input warps

     8Example: some MD04 skycell.055, ~100 input warps
    99 * FWHM input average from log = 4.48+-0.81 (pixels)
    10  * largest input has FWHM_MAJ of ~7.2 so clipped?
    11  * target FWHM = 6.88, kron~6.29 from log
     10 * largest input has FWHM_MAJ of ~7.2 (so clipped, since PSF.INPUT.MAX is 7.5 for STACK_DEEP? but PSF.INPUT.CLIP.NSIGMA is 5.0 so no)
     11 * target FWHM from log  6.88, Kron~6.29 from convolution part of log
    1212 * convolved stack FWHM_MAJ=14.36
    1313 * for comparison, unconvolved stack FWHM_MAJ=4.32

    2550Other issues:
    2651 * hard limit on number of inputs (was shell descriptors limit of 1024 easily being reached with image,mask,weight,psf,cmf files for each input. Raised to 65535 now by default.)
    27  * selection of target PSF FWHM 
     52 * selection of target PSF FWHM, worse input PSF not necessarily best choice as could end up being rejected and only a few inputs may be that large (not representative)
    2853 * heavy RAM use (10-20GB typical for 100+ inputs)
    2954 * long run-time for 20+ inputs, 400 inputs order 12-14hr (use method similar to psphotStack?)
