My standard .profile sets the following environment variable:
----- cut here -----
BLOCKSIZE=1k
export BLOCKSIZE
----- cut here -----
What is the reason that it is set to 1k?
It seems that $BLOCKSIZE also influences the behaviour of commands
like df or du, which spits out 1k blocks instead of 512 byte blocks
(the option -k should be used for 1k blocks).
