Where did this "magic number" come from?

And making an urb size that big can keep some pipelines full, it also
comes at the expense of other potential issues, have you tested this to
see that it really does help in throughput?

And if it does, does this size really need to be that big?  What is it
set to today, the endpoint size?  If so, that's a huge jump...

thanks,
