I don't know if this answers your question, but maybe search the archives for my posts a few months ago. On 2.4, there's a misfeature when using LVM with RAID5. Basically, the two will cause your system not to cache any data, and to sync to disk immediately, once you create a snapshot volume. Apparently, this will be addressed in 2.6. So if you want RAID5 and LVM, consider hardware acceleration.
