Re: raid10n2/xfs setup guidance on write-cache/barrier (GiB alignment)

Dne 17.3.2012 16:35, Peter Grandi napsal(a):

I often recommend aligning partitions to 1GiB, also because I
like to have 1GiB or so of empty space at the very beginning and
end of a drive.

I'm really curious why do you use such alignment? I can think about few
reasons, but most practical I think you like to slice in gigabyte sizes.
