Small blocks sizes can lead to reduced compression efficiency, so allow multiple blocks to be compressed together in a super block. The disadvantage is that the super block must be read sequentially to retrieve blocks. However, different super block sizes can be used for different backup types, so the full backup super block sizes are large for compression efficiency and diff/incr are smaller for retrieval efficiency.
