Dear Tru64 managers,

I am running tru64 5.1b on an ES45, pk3.

I'm wondering if there would be a performance hit from mirroring my swap volume in LSM. Intuitively, mirrored swap doesn't sound like it would be very performance-friendly, however this depends I think on how the LSM driver handles I/O.

Could someone explain to me whether mirroring my swap space will cause a performance degradation, and if so, for what reason? If not, why not?

Thanks very much in advance...
