well, we've got several huge tables, and queries against them that are
suffering from poor performance. both data and indexes are on a single
raid 0+1 drive. we've got several bays left in our disk array, and i'm
wondering if moving the indexes to their own raid 0+1 or raid 5 drive
will increase performance ( - in oracle this is a no brainer). you can
assume that the queries and indexes themselves are optimized.
