I first started with -5 and and used -3 in the release, as the method is
multi-resolution/sigma. Matlab, if I remember, used a sigma of 2.5 as its
default cutoff for Gaussian window. And yes, due to their slow speed, I
included denormal detection in order to error early. (infinity or nan are
invalid outputs and happen only when the algorithm becomes unstable)
