In reading the tuning manpage I came across the section entitled "STRIPING DISKS," and it suggests "you should only stripe partitions that require serious I/O performance, typicallly /var, /home, or custom partitions used to hold databases and web pages." I only have a single drive to begin with, but I would like to partition it in such a way that will allow for easy upgrading in the future (ie. adding additional web storage). The comment from the "STRIPING DISKS" section made me wonder if I should create a separate, "custom" partition that points to wherever Apache normally stores its web pages (I realize this can be changed too)? I'd appreciate any other suggestions from those of you who have gone through the motions of setting up a web server from scratch and learned what would have been nice to do differently.
