    Snippet: We find for these values of p and b that the average number of tests required to check N samples is about 8 ⁄ . Meanwhile for p=0.001, the optimal initial batch size is 692, which we round down to = 2 9 = 512 in practice, and find that the average number of tests required to check N samples is about 50 ⁄ (Figure 1 ). Figure 1 shows that our simulations with batch sizes rounded down to the nearest power of 2, are predicted very well by the two.....

Figure 1 shows that our simulations with batch sizes rounded down to the nearest power of 2, are predicted very well by the two analytical expressions above (i.e. without rounding b).
