The cache actually depends on it.  If the block info in the cache is freed and
then reallocated as smaller blocks, using append may utilize a stale blockinfo
and allow overwriting of data that is not allocated to the array.

I agree the situation is not ideal.  Do you have any ideas on how to fix it? 
One possibility is to allow manual clearing of the cache if you want to tune
the application.
