[Gmsh] Different results on Windows and Linux for the same characteristic length?

[Ziyu ZHANG]

Hi all,

Attached are the mesh generated by Gmsh2.6.2 on Windows and Linux from the
same .geo file. For upper block the characteristic length is set to 0.4 and
for the lower one 4.0. The results for Windows look correct because the
upper block is a 3 by 3 one, yielding 3/0.4 = 7.5 elements for each side,
which is exactly the case for the Windows results. I am wondering why Linux
version generated smaller elements and is there some way to fix this?

Best,

Ziyu
