According to David O'Brien:
> install.c:    variable_set2(VAR_NEWFS_ARGS,             "-b 8192 -f 1024 -c 22", 0);

Uh, right. That's bad. I'll change it.

Speaking of changing that value, shouldn't we also change the default block
and fragment values ?

It has been said in the lists many times that 16k/2k is more efficient
(and I'm using it myself by defautl now).

I'd suggest using 16k/2k (it has the side effect of enabling much greater
cpg -- 89 instead of 22) leading to bigger cylinder groups.

Comments ?
