I think I've found it. So, in the setup menu for the DPM, one can select the tracking scheme, which by default is determined through the checked checkbox 'Automated', which doesn't seem to predict the collection efficiency of small-sized particles very well in my case. Unchecking it, and selecting trapezoidal scheme seems to result in significantly better agreement to experimental data. 

Hopefully it can help others experiencing the same problem, as well.Â
