As expected, increasing I/O size (to avoid r/m/w) greatly reduced the 
issue (the ~11% hit is due to metadata allocation overhead).

I don't see anything wrong, so I think you had to live with the 
previously recorded 10x performance hit when overwriting 4K blocks on a 
64K chunk size thin volume...
