On further thought I realized this would have less of an effect than simply reducing max_sectors even more. Try decreasing it to 64, or even 32. You could go as low as 1 if you want, although I would be surprised if anything below 8 would make any difference. Note: This _will_ reduce your throughput. But if it keeps the device working, then it's worth it. Alan Stern ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Perforce Software.
