I have RTFM'ed :)  Doesn't mean I am unconfused though :-/

The problems I run into are:

in the man page it talks about ther being a difference between striping 
for reads versus writes. I dont see this being possible when I look
at ccdconfig.

Also the way sysinstall configured my disk they only have one track.
I dont think I want my interleave factor to be 4 million blocks.

So far I have been doing different interleaves and then running
iozone to see which it likes best.


Thanks,
