Why is the fastest playback speed on 242.5%?

I'm trying to "fifty shades of grey" audiobook, which is only 130 wpm at normal speed, human can comprehend, 600 - 700 wpm. The fastest speed in rockbox can only make the book go up to 310 wpm, which is too slow for my taste.

Why?!!!!!!!

saratoga:
Looks like the code defines that as max:

http://git.rockbox.org/?p=rockbox.git;a=blob;f=lib/rbcodec/dsp/tdspeed.c;h=21585eb78e1d2a051a85839f887f69a2b2561fec;hb=HEAD

My guess is that this is to avoid having to buffer more data at a time, but I don't fully understand the algorithm being used.

financialwar:
so can you change it in future releases or that is the max due to hardware limitation of the Clip+?

saratoga:
Its not a hardware limitation, but its probably more trouble to change than most people are willing to deal with.

You really want to listen to the entirety of Fifty Shades of Grey in two and a half(*) minutes?

(*105,000(words total)÷700(wpm)÷60(s)=2.5(m))
