Which don't exist yet. Don't confuse a generic situation with a
specific one.
The specific situation we have is:
1024 works for most people
4096 works for everyone today
sometime in the future 4096 might not be enough.
The size of these files may increase in the future. The realloc code
should have a best go at getting one of the sizes we know works and then
reallocating on the exceptions.
For all practical purposes, if we have a block of 1024 bytes in one
allocation, then its the same as previously.
