blocksize is one of (1,2,4,8,16,32) so it should always be a factor of
1024 unless my arithmetic is awry. I did it that way because I dislike
expressions with unbracketed mixed operations - they make me think too
much.

That's deliberate - we are currently only allowing a value of 1 here, so
I don't see any point in putting it in the sample config file, even as a
comment. When we enable other seg sizes we can add it to the sample file.
