Would really nice indeed. As far as i understand the block size used
as default (and max.) if nothing is specified is 64,512 Bytes. This
looks a little bit low for high-speed tape and i'm not sure what the
downside of higher values could be or why the manual state that there
is no need to set it explicit (higher).
As i'm in the testing phase i will have a look if higher values lead
to any trouble. Anyone aware why the default of 126*512 Bytes was
choosen?
Regards
Andreas
