I believe this is a limitation created by the restriction that the EA
space on the MDS only allows one page of data to store the EA, only 160
ost entries fit in that case.

The maximum number of stripes you can currently have in a single file is
160 that I''m aware of; a hard coded limit. This was something that was
discussed at the user group last month.

An interesting question. The answer has to be yes but is it fixed or
dependent on something?
