I am not able to understand the fundamental behind the block's variation in case of size and stripe. Could anyone of you please help me with this.
An interlace is the size, in Kbytes, Mbytes, or blocks, of the logical data segments on a stripe. Depending on the application, different interlace values can increase performance for your configuration. The performance increase comes from having several disk arms doing I/O. When the I/O request is larger than the interlace size, you might get better performance.
May be following link can help you, just check it out...
