It was pre-allocated. I'm incliding to think there is an alignment or
some sort of bug/edge-case in the write path to the file on top of the
lvm volume considering I don't see such horrible performance against the
file in host via O_DIRECT. I imagine until I figure out the issue,
sparse or preallocated will perform the same.
