Geo,
Doubling the # channels gives you better definition as well.? Could you do a test with 2048 channels and 4.8 uS peak time?? If you provide both mca files they could be compared.
First real run with a longer peaking time, nearly everything else the same. This is U L X-Rays, one of my current interests. To my eye, the peaks are taller for the same test-time and maybe a little better defined. For sure the PEAK-SEARCH routine likes the change and can identify the peaks with no hesitation. To take advantage of the better resolution from the longer peak time (9.6us vs 4.8 for previous tests), the # of channels was doubled to 2k.
