I guess, you use a regular caching IO? The lowest packet size it can produce is a PAGE_SIZE (4K). Target can't change it. You can have lower packets only with O_DIRECT or sg interface. But I'm not sure it will be performance effective.
I do everything with Direct IO, which is automatic when using the BLOCKIO method in SCST.
I meant on initiator(s), not on the target.

Sorry - but yes, I always run the benchmark apps with direct IO

Then, there's one more reason why we should find out the cause of such a big variation between runs. Can you repeat all the tests with the latest SCST SVN trunk/ including SRPT driver with each run for at least few minutes?

Which backstorage do you use for BLOCKIO?
