A track sprinter can probably hit 300 or 400 rpm. I've done over 250 rpm
Wow!
and I'm no racer. Remember that the original poster was talking about
riding down long hills, so you're not going to have much pedal
resistance, even in your big gears.
I find that when I have no pedal resistance, I
am unable to add speed no matter how fast I
crank. Why bother cranking 200 rpm if it's not
going to add speed, or at least feel like it's
adding speed?
