Is the data organization on the LVM comparable to a RAID-0 ?

On a 3 disk RAID-0 I manage to import 30 hours within 24 hours.
Same Linux, Software-Versions etc.

Is this an advantage? Speedwise?

I have a quad here, CPU load is not an issue; but just 8 GB of RAM.
I looked at disk usage with iostat (-X) and harddisk utilization. On a one 
disk setup i got 100% at all time; no it is some where between 30-70% on each 
RAID disk.

Don't have the config at hand till monday; but I recall, that the proportions 
on the mem are the same.

I am hoping so as well, also to get the HDD usage over the entire RAID up to 
100%...
