This line search implementation is not a line search at all; it simply uses the full step.  Thus, this routine is intended for methods with well-scaled updates; i.e. Newton's method (<A HREF="../SNES/SNESNEWTONLS.html#SNESNEWTONLS">SNESNEWTONLS</A>), on well-behaved problems.

For methods with ill-scaled updates (<A HREF="../SNES/SNESNRICHARDSON.html#SNESNRICHARDSON">SNESNRICHARDSON</A>, <A HREF="../SNES/SNESNCG.html#SNESNCG">SNESNCG</A>), a small
damping parameter may yield satisfactory but slow convergence despite
the simplicity of the line search.
