Hi, As you noted, the precision differences in the test-suite are hard coded into relax as tolerances. I've tried to chase down the point of entry of these tolerances for the reduced spectral density mapping tests but cannot find anything in the commit messages in the repository nor in the

Hi, Yes, Windows has caused many precision compromises in the test-suite. It was especially bad with the optimisation tests as it decreased the number of minimisation iterations and hence caused all results to change! Fortunately the final results were reasonable (in the cases I tested), just
