Logical Cylinder Size of the Disks - is it possible to change it?

Dear all,

i think i'm wasting a lot of space due to cylinder size of my disks.
Here the fdisk partition table:

Code:

---

[~]# fdisk /dev/xvda

WARNING: DOS-compatible mode is deprecated. It's strongly recommended to
        switch off the mode (command 'c') and change display units to
        sectors (command 'u').

It seems that my logical size cylinder are of:
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

Is it right or i'm in wrong?

Thanks,

Ok,

i found some good answer after google a lot.
There is no much about Block Size (or Cluster Size on FAT system).

My system is running with a Block Size of 4Kb which means a lot of space wasted (especially on a web/mail server that handle toons of small files).

I would like to resize my Block Size to 512b.
Is it possible?
Any suggestion?

Thanks,
Max
