Point out sparse file writes in common issues #434

Closed jokva closed 4 years ago

jokva commented 4 years ago

The issue of slow header writes pop up quite often, and it's likely that the culprit is actually a slow file system for sparse writes. It is certainly useful to point this out in the common issues section in the readme, as well as briefly mention sparse writes in the docs for create.
