for me (with LTO-3) increasing Maximum block size has had quite the
impact on performance.

Sadly, with the new setting I had trouble reading my tapes so switched
back to the old configuration.

I suspect you may get around the problem if you re-label all your tapes
after switching the block size, however I have not testet this. Maybe
someone can shed some light on the whole block size business? :-)

kind regards,
Nils
