global_balance_parameter

Tolerance for whether a subregion is worth dividing

## Specification

Alias: none

Argument(s): REAL

Default: 0.0

## Description

The `global_balance_parameter` controls how much global search is performed by only allowing a subregion to be subdivided if the size of the subregion divided by the size of the largest subregion is at least `global_balance_parameter`. Intuitively, this forces large subregions to be subdivided before the smallest subregions are refined.
