df -k is not giving you the os block size. The -k just specifies it in 1024 blocks vs 512. In AIX try fileplace <filename> and it shows the block size and fragment size if specified. For JFS in AIX I'm not sure you can change the block size from 4K.

eg.

fileplace file.sql

File: file.sql Size: 274 bytes Vol: /dev/lv03 Blk Size: 4096 Frag Size: 4096 Nfrags: 1 Compress: no

  Logical Fragment


  0219932                            1 frags     4096 Bytes,  100.0%
