Aggregation is based on the 4MB blocks, and if you've got caching enabled then it's also not going to flush them out to disk very often if you're continuously updating the block — I don't remember all the conditions, but essentially, you'll run into dirty limits and it will asynchronously flush out the data based on a combination of how old it is, and how long it's been since some version of it was stable on disk.
