Hi, I'm planning to set up RAID 1 with gmirror (2 SATA disks). Which algorithm should I use? The Handbook uses round-robin, but the man page says that split is the default algorithm. Are there any pros and cons that I should consider beforehand?
Apparently gmirror's balance code is pretty limited, and none of the algorithms are vastly better than each other. Ivan Voras and others have written some interesting patches, but none have made it into the tree yet, AFAIK.
