mpsmin is basically always 4k.


On something unrelated:  SSDs remap all the time by definition, and
HDDs are really good at remapping bad sectors these days as well.
So verifying blocks that do not actually contain file system (meta)data
is pretty pointless.   Can we come up with a way to verify only blocks
that have valid data in them, while still being resonably sequential?
I.e. walk the rmap?
