Thanks! Unfortunately, adding such functionality would be hard to do correctly. Currently, each read blocks the caller while it fetches the block. Because the block size is typically quite small,...

As a quick workaround, you could also experiment with increasing the block size. The default is 128 KiB (0x20000 bytes); you could bump this up to several megabytes and effectively...

It'll mean the first access of each block will take much longer. Say you set the block size to 10M. The kernel still issues individual read calls with pretty small...
