How long the string be on a parachute?

The 'best' length for a parachute string depends on what the parachute is for and the rest of the design. If a parachute's strings are too short, the whole parachute could collapse. If the parachute's strings are too long, there may be some wobbling and bungeeing about, more twisting of the strings, etc. Parachutes for heavy things (like spacecraft) tend to have longer strings than parachutes for people, since they're less affected by this instability.
