I guess I'm lucky. I get an improvement here with ProTrack and only 190 or so points. Fewer points does indeed appear to make it worse rather than better, at least for me. I'm using TheSkyX and having Tpoint compute a supermodel. I suspect that how many points are needed before tracking gets better rather than worse with ProTrack is probably unique to the particular equipment load and it's characteristics (i.e., the model that gets computed vs. reality and the residuals between them).
