"option block-size " is specific to cluster/stripe xlator. It determines the
size of the chunks the file has to be sliced into and distributed among
stripe's children. It does not affect the sizes in which fuse does
writes/reads.

A centipede was happy quite, until a toad in fun,
Said, "Prey, which leg comes after which?",
This raised his doubts to such a pitch,
He fell flat into the ditch,
Not knowing how to run.
