235 bars at 210 BPM -- fast, and 4:29 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick.

kick and crashes through bars 1-8, snare through bars 9-12, hi-hat through bars 13-14, toms through bars 15-16, snare through bars 17-24 and hi-hat through bars 25-32, and 16 more changes after that.
