 will give better estimates than trend analysis.

+The following pictures show the upper and lower bound (one sigma)
+on estimated critical rate, as computed by PLRsearch, after each trial measurement
+within the 30 minute duration of a test run.
+
+Both graphs are focusing on later estimates. Estimates computed from
+few initial measurements are wildly off the y-axis range shown.

+
+This test case shows quite narrow critical region. Both fitting functions
+give similar estimates, the graph shows the randomness of measurements,
+and a trend. Both fitting functions seem to be somewhat overestimating
+the critical rate. The final estimated interval is too narrow,
+a longer run would report estimates somewhat bellow the current lower bound.
