Mirroring is not too bad for swap. When the system needs to read swap the raid drivers will read from which ever disk is not busy, so it might be faster than non-raid, but only slightly so. A swap on raid5 is quite a bit slower. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
