+ Note that this is to minimize system call overhead.
+ Other values may be appropriate to minimize file system
+ or disk overhead. For example on my current GNU/Linux system
+ the readahead setting is 128KiB which was read using:
+
+ file="."
+ device=$(df --output=source --local "$file" | tail -n1)
+ echo $(( $(blockdev --getra $device) * 512 ))
+
+ However there isn't a portable way to get the above.
+ In the future we could use the above method if available
+ and default to io_blksize() if not.
