GPFS 3.3 on RHEL5.5:

# stat /gpfs/bigfile
  File: `/gpfs/bigfile'
  Size: 10737418240     Blocks: 20971520   IO Block: 1048576 regular file
Device: 13h/19d Inode: 127073      Links: 1
Access: (0644/-rw-r--r--)  Uid: (    0/    root)   Gid: (    0/    root)
Access: 2010-06-18 10:04:10.555613000 +0200
Modify: 2010-06-18 10:04:58.764714000 +0200
Change: 2010-06-18 10:04:58.764714000 +0200

But block size is really something you can choose when creating the
filesystem (mmcrfs -B).
