I'd argue that using an I/O size smaller than the file system block size is
simply sub-optimal and that most apps. don't do random I/O of blocks.
OR
If you had an app. that does random I/O of 4K blocks (at 4K byte offsets),
then using a 4K/1K file system would be better.
i can just use raw partition but it isn't about the question.
For me it is just clearly suboptimal behavior, but if it "cannot be fixed"
then fine.
The case is when you store VM images on filesystem and virtual machine
issues writes. Quite common case.
