I would like to try using filesystems with 8K blocks, but I can't seem to find anything about this in info explorer. The file /usr/include/jfs/fsparam.h contains a line that goes: #define BSIZE 4096 /* size of file system block (bytes) */ suggesting that it is hard-coded, but the the "Tested Mettle" column of _UNIX Review_ shows performance stats for 512 1K 2K & 8K bytes per block file systems. How do you make an 8K filesystem? Can it be done without having the source code to JFS?

JFS ONLY supports 4K block sizes :-( - Frank Feuerbacher Disclaimer: I don't speak for my employer and they don't speak for me.
