Recommended default block size is 128 KB for SSD and 1 MB for HDD. In fact,
it's possible to use 1 MB for SSD too - it will lower memory usage, but
may increase average WA and reduce linear performance.
OSD memory usage is roughly (SIZE / BLOCK * 68 bytes) which is roughly
544 MB per 1 TB of used disk space with the default 128 KB block size.
With 1 MB it's 8 times lower.
