Thanks for the clarification.
i hardcoded min_nr_regions to 200 by:
diff --git a/_damon.py b/_damon.py
index 1306ea1..82342a5 100644
--- a/_damon.py
+++ b/_damon.py
@@ -344,7 +344,7 @@ def set_attrs_argparser(parser):

Though I am not quite sure if it is accurate enough :-) so fixed-gran would be
a nice feature.

Thanks, it seems you mean if we get 100 snapshots with values exactly as
2, 4, 6, 8, 10..... , 198, 200 (just an example)
for 25%, we will get 50; for 50%, we will get 100; for 75%, we will
get 150, for 100%,
we will get 200. Right?
I am not quite sure I understand "as DAMON regions shouldn't be converged well
at the beginning of the record", in case we are monitoring with
--count=2000, I suppose
only at the beginning, regions are not splitted very well? When we
have run monitor
for a while, regions should have been relatively stable? I mean I
don't quite understand
why 100% is noise and 50% is more reliable.
