I suppose my real question was whether there is some "sweet" buffer size pertaining to Qdos/Smsq, that minimises fiddly edge conditions and the like.
It mostly depends on what you're doing. But I'd use a nice 16k or 32k buffer for most purposes.
How about the geometric mean of our two responses - that would be 128 bytes - but even better would be 124 bytes, which will have long alignment going for it and will certainly save some code (you can do it with MOVEQ).
