Nah the trouble is the rebuild times. Having to rebuild by reading the whole
disk in megabyte chunks is just horribly inefficient. Assuming writeback on
the disk is disabled and the disk Io is implemented correctly we could
"mostly assume" that if we write the metadata out -after- we've successfully
written out the stripe object data then the data will be valid; then we
just need to read the metadata areas at the end of each stripe (which would
be on the order of kilobytes, not megabytes) and the rebuild times would
be a bit faster than a disk fsck.
