Are there any advantages to extents larger than 256K on ssd Media?  Even
if a much needed garbage collection process were to be created, the
smaller extents would mean less data would need to be re-written, (and
potentially duplicated due to snapshots and ref copies.)

The fine details on how to implement all of this is way over my head,
but it seemed to me like the logic to keep the extents small is already
more or less already there, and would need relatively very little work
to manifest.
