 Every time either the rate corrections are activated, $\tau$ is changed or the subframe length is changed, then a new correction table is evaluated. Note that computing the correction table is time consuming. 
 
+Here in figure~\ref{rateplots} you can find typical values of $\tau$  and typical values of the rates for which we have small non linerities (10\% non linearity) as a function of the beam energy.
