Summary0000248: default values for block and file size for tape devices in configurations are too small
DescriptionThe default settings for blocksize and file size are much too small for modern tape drives.

I would like to suggest that we put reasonable configured values into the standard configuration fieles.

Minimum Block Size = 1M
Maximum Block Size = 1M

Maximum Filesize = 50g
TagsNo tags attached.

tape examples now use bigger block and file sizes

As the defaults for Block Size and File Size are much too small
for modern tape drives, we now set some adequate defaults in the
example configs.

Also we link to the tape speed whitepaper where the effect of big
block sizes can be seen in detail.
