I was struck by this line in your introduction:

    The transplantation of a self-contained, natively formatted file
    from a POSIX-compliant file system into an environment that favors
    contiguous I/O on large blocks and penalizes or lacks small-scale
    random I/O is a daunting task.

Sure sounds like you are talking about a parallel file system there!
