Yes, good point.  It turns out that the “fSubsessionCounter” variable (used in “numSubsessions()”) wasn’t added until fairly recently (2012).  That’s why we didn’t use it in the (much earlier) code for setting “fNumStreamStates”.  But you’re right - it could (should) be used, as a small optimization.  This change will be made in the next release of the code.
