There you have the answer. Since a scattered read can't cross an extent 
boundary (as Mark has already pointed out too), the most you can get with 
an 8K blocksize is 8 blocks per multiblock read. (8 x 8K = 64K). The 
occasional < 8 block reads could be due to one of the blocks being in  the 
buffer pool already.

Hi Wolfgang I use 64k uniform size.
