hi,
  i just did a small mc study of the resolution from the current fast
fitter (does an analytic circle fit). i used run
$ANALDIR/v3_1/flr/flr-10175.root, which was generated with 200mu wire
resolution along with multiple scattering, and energy loss. for
600MeV<p<1GeV, i got a momentum resolution of 38MeV. this is without
wang's improvements of splicing two circles together with radii
proportional to the radius of the field in each region.
