Yes... went with internal.

I'll keep an eye on write performance.  Do you happen to know, off hand,
a magic incantation to change the bitmap-chunk size? (Do I need to
remove the bitmap I just set up and reinstall one with the larger chunk
size?)
Remove (--bitmap=none) then add again with new --bitmap-chunk.

Looks like my original --bitmap internal creation set a very large chunk size initially

md3 : active raid6 sda4[0] sdd4[3] sdc4[2] sdb4[1]
      947417088 blocks level 6, 64k chunk, algorithm 2 [4/4] [UUUU]
      bitmap: 6/226 pages [24KB], 1024KB chunk

unless that --bitmap-chunk=131072 recommendation is translates to 131072KB (if so, are you really running 131MB chunks?)
