Your assertion ignores the fact that filesystems themselves are, in

5+0 configuration as I get much better performance.
Or you might want to read the man pages for md and mdadm. RAID10 is
faster (assuming you use the "far 2" config). No, RAID10 is not another
name for RAID1+0...
When I read the man page for "md", I see:
RAID10
RAID10 provides a combination of RAID1 and RAID0, and is
sometimes known as RAID1+0.
...so I'm not sure what man page you've been reading.
I know that RAID 10 is faster than RAID 5+0. I meant that in the rare
circumstance when I'm trying to build a very large volume of disks (say,
20), I'll usually create four RAID5 arrays with five disks each, and
then stripe them. The resulting array (RAID 5+0) will be more resilient
to failure and perform much better than a single RAID5 array containing
all 20 disks.
