The striping driver has an instruction in unit init that should be
pulled. It moves 8192 into ucb$l_maxbcnt. Comment that out and
the driver should perform faster for many operations. That's what
happens when you reuse bits of code sometimes <wry grin>...

Also I should note the thing may need you to bump LRPCOUNT
some so it can grab IRPs fast, and you may want to make
/chunk=n/reserved=n where n is the "sectors per track"
on the host disks, if they're both the same geometry. I don't know
how much this matters, but itcan be played with.
