"storeio --store-type=part 1:device:hd0" apparently supports file_get_storage_info and reports the partition boundaries there, so the I/O would not have to go through the storeio translator. libstore/encode.c (too_big) has a comment saying "The RPC protocol uses 32-bit off_t's" but that is false since 2002.
