Lustre only supports 4096-byte blocksize for ldiskfs, so that makes your study very \
easy. I suspect that Oracle database uses 8192-byte blocks, but to be honest I don't \
know anything about it. 

That said, Lustre is probably not very well suited for Oracle databases, but I'd be \
very happy to see any results you can generate in this configuration. Please post the \
results to this list. 

Cheers, Andreas
