0K due to a bug in the operating system.  You can set it to anything else if
you want to, but if you end up with a write-only filing system they did at
least tell you so.

As to why your floppy disc read/write should be slow, I'm not sure.  What is
your ADFSDirCache configured to?  How slow is "slow" anyway?  More
information, please!
