Please copy me on messages you expect me to read.  Otherwise I might
not see them.

No.  In each case, the limiting factor is the disk hardware.

Yes.  ccd is fine as long as the hardware is OK.  If a component of a
mirror fails, however, you have to reboot and reconfigure ccd before
you can continue.  Vinum recovers automatically.

A little.  But it's not really that complicated, and the documentation
is (marginally) better.
