None, as Reindl said. This is not a memory issue, it's a function of I/O 
optimization. Records are stored in pages, and pages are composed of multiple 
disk blocks. The database reads or writes only entire pages, in order to better 
use the system's disk throughput.

This is a reasonably advanced topic, so don't try to mess with block and page 
sizes if you don't know the fine details :-)
