Especially fsync() used to be really bad on big file but choosing a bigger block size changed a lot. If the database used by the original poster is based on something like c-isam then (AFAIR) it is in fact using 1k blocks which may explain the better results of 1k block size. With a 100 MB file size fs management overhead should not be that visible.
