    sorry, what is the performance problem behind this? is there anything I 
missed in this conversation?
    
    If a user configures multiple journal directories, can we dedup and use one 
journal directory per disk partition? If we dedup, there is no performance 
degradation and there is no backward compatibility issue, right?
    
    For example, we open a entrylog file by calling 
**ledgerDirsManager.getWritableLedgerDirsForNewLog()** , the dirs manager can 
handle the duplication (make sure one directory per disk partition is used) and 
return the right directory. By doing this, all the directory/disk partition 
related complexity is hidden and managed and people don't have the know the 
details.
    
    I don't have any strong opinion adding another setting. My feeling is that 
we are not taking the right approach to address the problem here.
