Nonsense ... although you do have to keep a careful eye on piston speed and 
acceleration rates, the trick here is to use lightweight pistons and rods to 
keep reciprocating mass down.  Increasing the wristpin size is a good idea, 
too.

FWIW, several tuners are using 95.5mm stroke cranks in 20v motors with 
7000rpm redlines and they don't seem to have any problems with it.

My 2.5 liter 10V turbo Loves to rev, in fact once the rev limiter hits at 
6,200 it's still pulling quite hard. and that is with a stock head manifold 
and turbo running 7PSI boost.. Of coure the 9.2 to 1 compression helps some...
