max would be how many list items the engine supports so queried therotical min
would be 1 byte, not sure how 16 bytes is assumed above but my guess is that if
engine is able to push min burst lengths which would be 1 and give you
interrupt. But seriously, that would not be practical. So this should be a
realistic limit which system can cope with.
