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.
