Stephen,
Sorry your right, I had to go back and look up what we were doing for metadata.
but we ended up with 1MB block for metadata and 8MB for data and a 32k subblock based on the 1MB metadata block size, effectively a 256k subblock for the Data

[…]which is probably why 32k sub block was the default for so many years ....I may not be remembering correctly, but I thought the default block size was 256k, and the sub-block size was always fixed at 1/32nd of the block size — which only yields 32k sub-blocks for a 1MB block size.I also think there used to be something special about a 16k block size… but I haven’t slept well in about a week, so I might just be losing it.--
