+     bs=$((1024*2**$i))
+     printf "%7s=" $bs

+   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.
