I wonder why the dlt8k is so much slower than its predecessor...

The DLT7000 User's Manual claims the same maximum rewind time (120 seconds)
as the DLT8000, but it is a bit faster on the unload from an already
rewound tape (17 vs 21 seconds).

That doesn't seem to be that significant a difference.
