/*
 Why is the total FSDB file size bigger when using $fsdbAutoSwitchDumpfile?

The FSDB file grows bigger using fsdbAutoSwitchDumpFile because

   1. The memory limit size is tuned down to 7M by the FSDB writer when
      the $fsdbAutoSwitchDumpfile task is called.
   2. The default memory limit is 64M with other FSDB dumping tasks.
   3. Generally speaking, the bigger memory limit leads to a better compression
      ratio; therefore, the smaller default limit with $fsdbAutoSwitchDumpfile
      causes the FSDB file size to increase.

Consider two different simulation runs where the only change is the
setup call to automatically switch FSDB files or not. For example:

Run 1 used:  $fsdbDumpfile( "myfull_dump.fsdb" );

Run 2 used:  $fsdbAutoSwitchDumpfile(1900, "my_dump.fsdb", 0, "debussyAutoSwitch.log" );

The simulation time was the same in the two runs but the FSDB file
size increased using the $fsdbAutoSwitchDumpfile task. The simulation
results follow:

Run 1:   fsdbDumpfile with default memory buffer of 64 MB

~401 MB (disk size of 401214254 bytes)

 
Run 2:   fsdbAutoSwitchDumpfile with default memory buffer of 7 MB

~637 MB (disk size of 637572720 bytes)


The reason fsdbAutoSwitchDumpfile has a default buffer size of 7 MB is
to have more accurate file sizes.  With the default buffer size the
file size will be +/- ~7 MB.  If the buffer was 64 MB, the file sizes
would be accurate to +/- ~64 MB.

To reduce the total FSDB file size using the system task
$fsdbAutoSwitchDumpfile, please do the following.

a.       Before running the simulation, setenv NOVAS_FSDB_ENV_WRITER_MEM_LIMIT 64
(or to a bigger value)

b.       Run the test case again. 

The simulation results after changing the buffer size follow:

Run 2:   fsdbAutoSwitchDumpfile with NOVAS_FSDB_ENV_WRITER_MEM_LIMIT = 2 MB
~759 MB (disk size of 759143293 bytes)


Run 2:   fsdbAutoSwitchDumpfile with NOVAS_FSDB_ENV_WRITER_MEM_LIMIT = 64 MB
~401 MB (disk size of 401214254 bytes)

From these results, fsdbAutoSwitchDumpfile = fsdbDumpfile if the
buffer is set to 64 MB (maximum compression).  As the buffer size is
decreased, the FSDB file size generated with fsdbAutoSwitchDumpfile
will increase (minimum compression).
