-    property list class.

+        <p>
+        Each <i>raw</i> metadata block is initially allocated to be of the 
+        given size.  Specific metadata objects (e.g., object headers, 
+        local heaps, B-trees) are then sub-allocated from this block.
+        <p>
+        The default setting is 2048 bytes, meaning that the library 
+        will attempt to aggregate metadata in at least 2K blocks in the file.
+        Setting the value to <code>0</code> (zero) with this function 
+        will turn off metadata aggregation, even if the VFL driver attempts 
+        to use the metadata aggregation strategy.               
+        <p>
+        Metadata aggregation reduces the number of small data objects 
+        in the file that would otherwise be required for metadata.  
+        The aggregated block of metadata is usually written in a 
+        single write action and always in a contiguous block, 
+        potentially significantly improving library and application

+  <dt><strong>Purpose:</strong>
+    <dd>Sets the size of a contiguous block reserved for small data.
+  <dt><strong>Description:</strong>
+    <dd><code>H5Pset_small_data_block_size</code> reserves blocks of 
+        <code>size</code> bytes for the contiguous storage of the raw data 
+        portion of <em>small</em> datasets.
+        The HDF5 library then writes the raw data from small datasets
+        to this reserved space, thus reducing unnecessary discontinuities
+        within blocks of meta data and improving IO performance.
+        <p>
+        A small data block is actually allocated the first time a 
+        qualifying small dataset is written to the file.  
+        Space for the raw data portion of this small dataset is suballocated
+        within the small data block.  
+        The raw data from each subsequent small dataset is also written to
+        the small data block until it is filled; additional small data blocks
+        are allocated as required.
+        <p>
+        The HDF5 library employs an algorithm that determines whether 
+        IO performance is likely to benefit from the use of this mechanism
+        with each dataset as storage space is allocated in the file.
+        A larger <code>size</code> will result in this mechanism being 
+        employed with larger datasets.  
+        <p>
+        The small data block size is set as an allocation property in the 
+        file access property list identified by <code>fapl_id</code>.
+        <p>
+        Setting <code>size</code> to zero (<code>0</code>) disables the
+        small data block mechanism.

-  <dt><strong>Purpose:</strong>
-    <dd>Sets up use of the shuffle filter.
-  <dt><strong>Description:</strong>
-    <dd><code>H5Pset_shuffle</code> sets the shuffle filter,
-        <code>H5Z_FILTER_SHUFFLE</code>,
-        in the dataset creation property list <code>plist_id</code>.  
-	<p>
-	The shuffle filter <span class=termEmphasis>de-interlaces</span> 
-        a block of data by reordering the bytes.  
-	All the bytes from one consistent byte position of 
-        each data element are placed together in one block;
-	all bytes from a second consistent byte position of 
-        each data element are placed together a second block; etc.
-	For example, given three data elements of a 4-byte datatype 
-	stored as <code>012301230123</code>, 
-        shuffling will re-order data as <code>000111222333</code>.
-        This can be a valuable step in an effective compression
-	algorithm because the bytes in each byte position are often 
-	closely related to each other and putting them together 
-        can increase the compression ratio.
-	<p>
-	This filter is designed to be used in combination with 
-	a compression filter.

   <dt><strong>Purpose:</strong>
-    <dd>Sets the minimum metadata block size.

   <dt><strong>Description:</strong>
-    <dd><code>H5Pset_meta_block_size</code> sets the 
-        minimum size, in bytes, of metadata block allocations when 
-        <code>H5FD_FEAT_AGGREGATE_METADATA</code> is set by a VFL driver.
-        <p>
-        Each <i>raw</i> metadata block is initially allocated to be of the 
-        given size.  Specific metadata objects (e.g., object headers, 
-        local heaps, B-trees) are then sub-allocated from this block.
-        <p>
-        The default setting is 2048 bytes, meaning that the library 
-        will attempt to aggregate metadata in at least 2K blocks in the file.
-        Setting the value to <code>0</code> (zero) with this function 
-        will turn off metadata aggregation, even if the VFL driver attempts 
-        to use the metadata aggregation strategy.               
-        <p>
-        Metadata aggregation reduces the number of small data objects 
-        in the file that would otherwise be required for metadata.  
-        The aggregated block of metadata is usually written in a 
-        single write action and always in a contiguous block, 
-        potentially significantly improving library and application 
-        performance.
+        <dd><code>H5Pset_userblock</code> sets the user block size of a

+            The default user block size is 0; it may be set to any 
+            power of 2 equal to 512 or greater (512, 1024, 2048, etc.).

-        <p>
-        The data sieve buffer is used when performing I/O on datasets

-        <p>
-        The default value is set to 64KB, indicating that file I/O for

         <p>
-        The HDF5 library employs an algorithm that determines whether

+        The <code>alloc</code> and <code>free</code> parameters

+        If the user has defined custom memory management routines,

+        those routine calls (i.e., the name of the routine is used as 
+        the value of the parameter);  
+        if the user prefers to use the system's <code> malloc</code>
+        and/or <code>free</code>, the <code>alloc</code> and 
+        <code>free</code> parameters, respectively, should be set to 
+        <code> NULL</code>
         <p>
-        The small data block size is set as an allocation property in the 
-        file access property list identified by <code>fapl_id</code>.

+        <br>
+        The <code>alloc_info</code> and <code>free_info</code> parameters 
+        can be used to pass along any required information to 
+        the user's memory management routines.
         <p>
-        Setting <code>size</code> to zero (<code>0</code>) disables the
-        small data block mechanism.
+        In summary, if the user has defined custom memory management 
+        routines, the name(s) of the routines are passed in the

-    <dd><em>herr_t</em> <code>H5Pset_vlen_mem_manager</code>(<em>hid_t</em> <code>plist</code>,
-        <em>H5MM_allocate_t</em> <code>alloc</code>,

-        <em>H5MM_free_t</em> <code>free</code>,
-        <em>void</em> *<code>free_info</code>
-    )
-  <dt><strong>Purpose:</strong>
-    <dd>Sets the memory manager for variable-length datatype allocation in 
-        <code>H5Dread</code> and <code>H5Dvlen_reclaim</code>.
-  <dt><strong>Description:</strong>
-    <dd><code>H5Pset_vlen_mem_manager</code> sets the memory manager for 
-        variable-length datatype allocation in <code>H5Dread</code> 
-        and free in <code>H5Dvlen_reclaim</code>.
-        <p>
-        The <code>alloc</code> and <code>free</code> parameters 
-        identify the memory management routines to be used.
-        If the user has defined custom memory management routines,
-        <code>alloc</code> and/or <code>free</code> should be set to make 
-        those routine calls (i.e., the name of the routine is used as 
-        the value of the parameter);  
-        if the user prefers to use the system's <code> malloc</code>
-        and/or <code>free</code>, the <code>alloc</code> and 
-        <code>free</code> parameters, respectively, should be set to 
-        <code> NULL</code>
-        <p>
-        The prototypes for these user-defined functions would appear as follows:
-            <br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
-            <em>typedef void</em> *(*<code>H5MM_allocate_t</code>)(<em>size_t</em> <code>size</code>, 
-                <em>void</em> *<code>alloc_info</code>) ;
-           
-            <br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
-            <em>typedef void</em> (*<code>H5MM_free_t</code>)(<em>void</em> *<code>mem</code>, 
-                <em>void</em> *<code>free_info</code>) ;
-        <br>
-        The <code>alloc_info</code> and <code>free_info</code> parameters 
-        can be used to pass along any required information to 
-        the user's memory management routines.
-        <p>
-        In summary, if the user has defined custom memory management 
-        routines, the name(s) of the routines are passed in the 
-        <code>alloc</code> and <code>free</code> parameters and the 
-        custom routines' parameters are passed in the 
-        <code>alloc_info</code> and <code>free_info</code> parameters.
-        If the user wishes to use the system <code> malloc</code> and 
-        <code>free</code> functions, the <code>alloc</code> and/or 
-        <code>free</code> parameters are set to <code> NULL</code> 
-        and the  <code>alloc_info</code> and <code>free_info</code> 
-        parameters are ignored.

-        That property list can then be used to create and/or open the file.  
-        <p>
-        <code>H5Pset_fapl_mpiposix</code> is available only in the
