to configure sub-buffers for them:
* **High event throughput**: in general, prefer bigger sub-buffers to
- lower the risk of losing events. Having bigger sub-buffers will
- also ensure a lower sub-buffer switching frequency. The number of
- sub-buffers is only meaningful if the channel is in overwrite mode:
- in this case, if a sub-buffer overwrite happens, you will still have
- the other sub-buffers left unaltered.

since the risk of losing events is already low. Since events
happen less frequently, the sub-buffer switching frequency should
