+ * Description:
+ *   Storage devices may report an optimal I/O size, which is the
+ *   device's preferred unit for sustained I/O.  This is rarely reported
+ *   for disk drives.  For RAID arrays it is usually the stripe width or
+ *   the internal track size.  A properly aligned multiple of
+ *   optimal_io_size is the preferred request size for workloads where
+ *   sustained throughput is desired.
