This issue isn't one I immediately recognise.  What kernel version is
in use on the clients?

I would guess an issue like this comes from the file size recovery
that we do if/when a client loses contact while writing a file, which
I don't know that we ever test with non-default layouts, and might not
work very well with layouts that have stripe_unit != object_size.

If you set "debug mds = 10" and "debug filer = 10" on the MDS, and
then capture the log from the point in time where you write a file to
the point in time where the file is statted and gives the incorrect
size (if it's reproducible that readily), that should gives us a
better idea.
