fast raid10, f2 layout. raid10,f2 is approx. 50% of the write speed of
raid0.
This more or less matches my testing.
Have you tested a stacked RAID 10 made up of 2 drive RAID1 arrays,
striped together into a RAID0.
That is not raid10, that's raid1+0. See man md.
I have found this configuration to offer very good performance, at the
cost of slightly more complexity.
It does, raid0 can be striped over many configurations, raid[156] being
most common.
