I have a 16x7/8 plate glass blank that I had Dan Cassaro pre-generate to
f/5.  I went with f/5 because Plop seemed to indicate that I could support
it with 18 points.  However later analysis shows that may not be so...

Tom Krajci uses a 6 pt support for a similar sized mirror and it works
wonderfully.  PLOP shows extremely small deformations.
