I think to stripe well you want the stripe size to be low, not the
blocksize to be large.
Here with LVM I use a 4k blocksize and a 4k stripsize.
I don't think using a large stripsize make any sense. The hardblocksize is
still 512 bytes. The most finegrined the stripsize is, the better the
disks will scale. So I suggest to use 4k stripsize with ext2.
