The completeness was about 80% overall to ~3A. Yesterday I noticed that I could process the data much better fixing the mosaicity to 0.5 in imosflm. I got about 95% complete up to 2.5A but with a multiplicity of 1.7. I tried to integrate the same data fixing the mosaicity at different values ranging from 0.2 to 0.6 and saw the trend in completeness, Rmerge and multiplicity.
