I don't doubt it adds some time (of course), but I don't see it being any significant amount. > It provides some functionality that's hugely useful in a > small number of cases, and in every other case it just makes your life > more complicated. For most, it doesn't make things any more complicated (because they never touch it). I'd say that LVM is useful in a growing number of cases. > btrfs does the former without anywhere near as much of > the latter. Oh, I don't object to btrfs and having the basic volume management in the filesystem layer. AdvFS on DEC Unix was great in that respect. I object to your painting of LVM aw "awful". -- Chris Adams <cmadams@xxxxxxxxxx> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
