+ * ocfs2_la_default_mb() - determine a default size, in megabytes of
+ * the local alloc.
+ *
+ * Generally, we'd like to pick as large a local alloc as
+ * possible. Performance on large workloads tends to scale
+ * proportionally to la size. In addition to that, the reservations
+ * code functions more efficiently as it can reserve more windows for
+ * write.
+ *
+ * Some things work against us when trying to choose a large local alloc:
+ *
+ * - We need to ensure our sizing is picked to leave enough space in
+ * group descriptors for other allocations (such as block groups,
+ * etc). Picking default sizes which are a multiple of 4 could help
+ * - block groups are allocated in 2mb and 4mb chunks.
+ *
+ * - Likewise, we don't want to starve other nodes of bits on small
+ * file systems. This can easily be taken care of by limiting our
+ * default to a reasonable size (256M) on larger cluster sizes.
+ *
+ * - Some file systems can't support very large sizes - 4k and 8k in
+ * particular are limited to less than 128 and 256 megabytes respectively.
+ *
+ * The following reference table shows group descriptor and local
+ * alloc maximums at various cluster sizes (4k blocksize)
+ *
+ * csize: 4K group: 126M la: 121M
+ * csize: 8K group: 252M la: 243M
