There are a lot of factors involved in the choice of this parameter (speed and latency of CPU, memory, system bus, holding disk, scsi bus, tape device, and more), so I can't give you a number. But I can say: - Bigger numbers will take up more memory, but never make things slower (unless you run out of RAM!) - The default of 1280kb should be adequate unless there is a big difference in speed between the holding disk and tape device.
