I am concerned that having all my data on one disk will result in my queries becoming I/O bound.  If it can support this, is there a suggested methodology for splitting up the directories across multiple disks?  I am using the Mulgara 2.0 alpha release.

Unfortunately, no, and you're right.... it does create an I/O problem.

We were planning on doing this (it's really just a matter of
configuration), but put it off since we are in the process of building
a new filesystem structure.  If there is real call for it, then I'm
sure I can convince my boss to let me have the time for it, as it
should only take a couple of days to get it done.
