Caveats

WARNING about creating a large image  (11 Jul 2011)

If the chosen binning factor is small enough (e.g. binsize=1 for an ACIS-I observation) then the following warning will be seen: 

# DMCOPY (CIAO): WARNING: Creating large image: 84 MB. Current max set at 50 MB.
Increase maximum using [opt mem=n] or increase blocking to reduce size.

The output files are completely valid; the warning is just there to let you know that the files that are being created are large. At present there is no way to hide this message.
