For a high-performance system (64-cores, 512GB RAM, 5TB local disk, 110TB NFS-mounted storage) is there any advantage of dropping lvm and mounting partitions directly? We're not planning on changing partition sizes, but if we did we'd probably do a full rebuild. Has anyone done performance testing to show that lvm isn't crippling I/O?
