The big change from 0.6.0 to 0.7.0 is, that you don't need to specify base
and size any longer. The memory is allocated, when test_itifg is started
with respect to the current frame size. So, if your config file specifies
a 3kx2k frame, 6Mb are allocated. With the '-n # of buffers' option you
can also increse this value.

Sorry, there is no up to date documentation to 0.7.0.
