Are there any good performance benchmarks that reflect the overhead of LVM? I want to spec it into some high I/O situations, but am hesitant...
LVM is a rather thin mapping layer. Its overhead is probably quite negligible, especially on today's hardware. But there's no better way to determine how it will perform in your particular situation than to try it yourself. It's quite simple to set up. If you still want to see benchmarks of various quality, google: lvm benchmark OR overhead -- Robert Dale -- TriLUG mailing list : http://www.trilug.org/mailman/listinfo/trilug TriLUG Organizational FAQ : http://trilug.org/faq/ TriLUG Member Services FAQ : http://members.trilug.org/services_faq/
