Strange NOR read/write throughput behaviour

[Bernhard Priewasser]

Hi all,

can anybody help me explaining this diagram of NOR read throughput?

As soon as a file, read from a StrataFlash containing only this file,
exceeds erase block size (128KiB), file reading lasts a portion of time
longer and read throughput stagnates...

Write throughput seems to be constant around erase block size:
