    OK,
    So it looks like I need to reconstruct again, this time running 
    BrDcRdoModule.  I will start that process as soon as HPSS is back up.
    
    For the matching, I used defaults. (ie not the matching files)  I looked 
    at the matching parameters and accepted vs total and saw in the runs I 
    looked at that I was getting almost everything.  My conclusion was that 
    pp being cleaner that there were less problems.  I did, however, worry 
    about that and had plans for the next round of matching to do that in a 
    formal way.  It was clear to me how to do that for the MRS and FFS, but 
    not BFS.  So I will make look into that in more detail and do it.  I 
    have a hard time imagining that would account for the decrease in 
    efficiency you see, but since I didn't pay attention, it just might.
    
    For the matching, I used BrFsTrackingModule which has BrModuleMatchTrack.
