help
By default Squashfs sets the dev block size (sb_min_blocksize)
to 1K or the smallest block size supported by the block device
(if larger). This, because blocks are packed together and
unaligned in Squashfs, should reduce latency.
This, however, gives poor performance on MTD NAND devices where
the optimal I/O size is 4K (even though the devices can support
smaller block sizes).
Using a 4K device block size may also improve overall I/O
performance for some file access patterns (e.g. sequential
accesses of files in filesystem order) on all media.
Setting this option will force Squashfs to use a 4K device block
size by default.
If unsure, say N.
