I'm backing up about 350GB with duplicity, and at 25MB per volume that is 14000 volumes at the very least.  I'm considering running --volsize 250 but wanted a sanity check.

The only unofficial info about volume size I could find is at:
http://blog.gmane.org/gmane.comp.sysutils.backup.duplicity.general/month=20090101

In my case, I have no shortage of temp space (32GB) and I'm uploading to a mounted cifs volume that lives in the same LAN. 

Am I Go/No Go for --volsize 250?
