performance testing on restore times. My DB is more than 50% write, so
I needed to optimize for writes.

If I had to do it over again, I'd most likely go with RAID-50, and take
the hit on restore time for the advantage on reads. I have to dig
through my records again to see the details... but then I have to do
all that for my OSCON presentation on this topic at the end of July in
Portland, OR. ;-)
