While true in theory, in practice the first LV you create is created at the lowest numbered PV extents, which correspond to low numbered sectors. My swap LV (which was created first) averages 44M/sec throughput (laptop drive, still slow...) My packages LV (for portage distfiles, created last) averages 28M/sec. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
