           Summary: POIFS hardcodes big-block size to 512
           Product: POI
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: POIFS
        AssignedTo: poi-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: nutello@sweetness.com


I have come across some files generated by scientific instruments whose
big-block size is not 512, but rather 4096. The power-of-two (12) is properly
stored in the header, but POIFS ignores that entirely, resorting to a built-in
constant. I'd post some files, but they average 260MB each.

I can help develop/test this, but I'll probably need some guidance first.
