Compare the main optics parameters like tunes before and after slicing with makethin.
In tests, turn off slicing for some of the main element classes to identify the main sources of changes.
For sextuples and octupoles, a single slice should always be sufficient.
For sextuples and octupoles, a single slice is normally be sufficient.
Increase the number of slices for critical elements like mini-beta quadrupoles. Even there, more than four slices should rarely be required.
Rematch tunes and chromaticity after makethin.
