It might be easier to just set the following
environment variables in the configuration editor

PFFORMTOKSIZE=100000
PFAUTOTOKSIZE=100000
PFTOKSIZE=100000

These correspond to the -tf -ty and -t flags.  If you
set them in the configuration editor you will not need
to keep setting them each time you call a process.

Good luck.
