Yeah, I agree with Cary and Mark and would add a comment that a tricky thing
like changing block size (thinking about granularity of buffer locking)
should be tested with simulating real concurrency.
 
E.g. your single session index lookup might run faster due lower index
height, but on the other hand you could have more buffer busy waits in
high-concurrency environments, etc..

I have the same opinion as the one Mark describes here.

 

One more comment: Why guess, when you can KNOW.

 

If you need to know, test it, and measure the performance.
