He's full of shit and spreading misinformation as usual.

"The four calls listed, "RdChunkCS," WrChunkCS," "RdBgMigrCS," and
"WrBgMigCS," are all referenced in the fs_usage source as being Core
Storage operations; the last two are noted in the code comments as
referring to "composite disk block migration" calls. This is the actual
"tiering" activity that forms the core of Fusion Drive. The blocks being
referenced are sequential (on disk0, the process is reading block
0x00debd00, then 0x00debe00, and then 0x00debf00), and the actual chunk
size being moved around is 128KB (0x20000 bytes)."

It's *abundantly* clear to anyone with working brain cells and powers of
simple observation that Fusion Drives do block(chunk)-level operations
rather than file-level operations.
