Hi,

Would it be possible for FancyCache to write to the disc using larger blocks than are used for caching?
I've realized that (maybe a Placebo effect?) FC seems to write deferred writes much faster, if I set the block size to a larger value.
Would it therefore be possible, to use 4 KB blocks for caching, but have FC convert these 4KB blocks to 512KB blocks (by accumulating multiple blocks into one larger one) when writing to disc, to reduce the amount of blocks to write?

Best regards,
FrozenLord

Yes, it does.

Yes, it does.

So this feature is already implemented?
Great

Thanks for the fast answer!
