If you are creating lots of small files and you are not worried about
accessing only small parts of them with a smaller block, then it
doesn't really make sense to reduce record size. With standard 128K
recsize if you create a small file, lets say 8K in size, the block
size used by zfs will be actually 8K.

Unless you are doing this to work-around space maps issue.
