Re: disk granularity

  What I think you're thinking of:
  fstatfs("/afs"...) will return 4096 on SGI systems, or 8192 everywhere
  else.  Perhaps this is not optimal, as you say.

When I first did the apollo afs port, I made st_blocksize in the stat struct
return the chunksize, which seemed reasonable at the time.  All sorts of
interesting things happened, and I eventually fixed it to return 1K or 4K (I
forget which).
