Demi Marie Obenour:
LVM2 seems to focus on high throughput at the expense of ease of recovery, checksumming, and the time needed to create a snapshot.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of each of them, and what would be the best default going forward?
Disadvantage of sticking with LVM2 is definitely the difficulty of recovery when metadata fills up. It's been happening less frequently since Marek expanded the default size, but before he did myself and others encountered thin pool corruption once it filled up and recovery was difficult and not guaranteed. I'd give up some speed for a more bulletproof system.
