Yes, I know, and it's really annoying.  I wonder why this needs to be
so...  There really should be a way to tune that, but I never digged
into the issue, just switched off the VG activation timeout instead.

Do you mean the LVM metadata read latency as seen by the LVM tools or
that of a mirrored data region?

I don't do any such things, so my data paths are independent of cLVM and
DLM.  And in this thread I'm trying to stress that my issue should be
independent of any disk related latency, because everything is in memory
already.

It's a pig for sure.
