The defaults are very sane for a 128MB 200MHz system :-).
Can you please support that with timing runs? Compare with a 16MB and
a 32MB run, and show us the numbers, thanks. Personally, I think we
should bump the numbers to 32MB. Apple has been shipping with 8MB as
the default for a while now, even that number I think is too small. If
no one can come up with data to support low numbers and we can come up
with data to support 16MB, I think it would be bad to keep the number
too small.
