If the docs say 256, I'd suggest using that not just for stable, but for anything. Maybe 511 bytes work everywhere and the docs are just wrong. And maybe it doesn't. I'd rather start out conservative, and if somebody can show that it really matters, and that 511 bytes really is always safe, we can do it then. But I don't imagine that the difference between "chunk it up to max 511 bytes" is really noticeably faster than "chunk it up to 256 bytes max".
