Correct. It is very much intentional that we do not default to issuing the largest commands supported by the physical hardware. If the device is not reporting an optimal transfer size, and the block layer default is too small, the solution is to adjust max_sectors_kb in sysfs (by adding a udev rule, for instance). -- Martin K.
