Hello Daniel Iliev,

Omitting LVM isn't an option, I'd lose all the flexibility that LVM
offers. I don't see why RAID-0 should be necessarily more efficient than
LVM, unless there's something superior about RAID-0's striping
algorithms. I could do some before and after tests, but I'd first have the
reformat the filesystems to remove any effects of fragmentation.

If no one comes up with a good reason for keeping the RAID, I'll get rid
of it, running bonnie++ before and after.
