keyword=spot and deadtime
for run 1622, ran spot near the end of the run.
deadtime went high for about 30 seconds, then returned to normal.
conclusion: spot needs events to run; when spot starts at run start, high
... deadtime incurred by spot prevents events from coming in quickly,
.... deadtime city. if spot is run after enough events already on file,
.... deadtime quickly returns to manageable level.
.
conclusion: don't run spot during first part of run. waiting until we have
about 1M events seems fine.
