The description of "star" mode sounds as if it is quite adaptive and can be fast if it finds a good match already in the first star pattern search, but will take more time if the other two steps are required in case of a bad match. Speculations.
The manual states:
Code:
Generally, the higher the number the harder the ME method will try to find an optimal match.
That line suggests that star is more exhaustive, since the "number" is 3 for star and 2 for umh. But it is far from clear, and several posts here gave me the opposite impression.

I hope this gets clarified soon. Isn't it one of the more important determiners of quality?
