Maybe, Ilya kindly set the default for krbd to 4MB last year in the kernel, but maybe having this available would be handy if people ever want a different default. It could be set to 4MB as well, with a note somewhere to point people at its direction if they need to change it.

It sort of applies to me. With a 4MB readahead you will probably struggle to get much more than around 50-80MB/s sequential reads, as the read ahead will only ever hit 1 object at a time. If you want to get nearer 200MB/s then you need to set either 16 or 32MB readahead. I need it to stream to LTO6 tape. Depending on what you are doing this may or may not be required.
