To get technical, I did not look at the recon LCIO files directly, but rather generated DQM from them. And the DQM did not look different between the two files. Now what Nathan had suggested was that possibly the DST maker is reading the hits from a different collection than it was reading from before, for instance uncallibrated hits instead of callibrated hits?
