    I don't have any numbers.
    But that's my setup on several servers and I didn't really notice any
    slow down.

    There are many howto's out there, but this is the one I liked the most.
       I followed this one because I was on a remote system the first one I
    setup, but have since used similar steps for many other machines.

    And yes... you simply treat your raid device like any other disk when
    creating a lvm.

    Cheers,
