This is what the driver notice and automatically compensate for in your

128kB is 131072 bytes. In this buffer, we want to store two fields, which
|
||||
leaves 65536 bytes for each field. Using 3168 blocks per field, we get
|
||||
20.68686868... available bytes per block; 165 bits. We can't allow the
|
||||
request for 256 bits per block when there's only 165 bits available! The -q50

|

option is silently overridden, and the -b128 option takes precedence, leaving
|
||||
us with the equivalence of -q32.
|
||||
|
||||
This gives us a data rate of 165 bits per block, which, times 3168, sums up
|
||||
to 65340 bytes per field, out of the allowed 65536. The current driver has
|
||||
another level of rate limiting; it won't accept -q values that fill more than
|
||||
6/8 of the specified buffers. (I'm not sure why. "Playing it safe" seem to be
|
||||
a safe bet. Personally, I think I would have lowered requested-bits-per-block
|
||||
by one, or something like that.) We can't use 165 bits per block, but have to
|
||||
lower it again, to 6/8 of the available buffer space: We end up with 124 bits
