22. Obviously, a choice of C determines only how fast the thermodynamic limit is reached. For the DCP and the BH2 models we used C = 1 and C = 4, respectively. These values are close to C ≈ 2.2 at the critical point of the XY-model. We verified that changing C within the range from unity to about 10 does not change the qualitative features of the flowgrams.

28. In certain models of continuous phase transitions the double peak distribution is observed for small system sizes but it evolves into the single-peak distribution for large L.
