Hmm, innodb_autoextend_increment seems more like what we're discussing here

If I'm reading that correctly, InnoDB defaults to extending files in 8MB
chunks.

This is not pure apples to apples as InnoDB does direct io, however
doesn't the checkpoint completion target code call fsync repeatedly in
order to achieve the check point completion target?

It only fsync's each file once. If there's a lot of files, it needs to issue a lot of fsync's, but for different files.
