[linux-lvm] automatic IO load balancing in LVM

I currently have multi-path set up with round-robin load-balancing.  As
you say, it's remedial, but it is present...

Where would this be appropriate?


Are you asking about read-balancing in Mirroring?  Not yet.


Or are you asking about load-balancing when there are multiple paths to
a device?  If so, that would be handled by dm-multipath, not LVM.
 (dm-multipath does have a remedial form of load balancing, IIRC.)
