Are those buffers static? If they're dynamically allocated, I
doubt it'd be an issue; I'm thinking of a use case where e.g.
file systems use large iounit but drivers use a small one.
That seems best of both worlds: minimal consumption where more
isn't needed, higher resource usage where it's beneficial and
cheap.
