 Care has been taken to use sensible defaults, though if you wish to override these defaults you can specify the following parameters.
 Specify with -D if running on the command line.  e.g. ```-DbackEdgeAnalysisCount=0 `DanalyzeCycles=false``` or in the configuration section (as in the above examples) if including in a Maven build.
