Haven't had time to test yet, but I wanted to ask experienced
folks what to expect when raising the block size from 512 to
2048 bytes?

I don't think it would speed up dd'ing the entire device?
(Especially if we use a large block size in dd.)

Would it perhaps speed up myriads of random accesses?

Regards.
