Thanks Ramon.

Do you know why some of your mds were created with bitmaps and others were not?  When I installed Ubuntu 16.04 and used the installer to create a RAID1 some of the mds had bitmaps and some did not.

Thanks,
Pete

 From the Linux RAID wiki:
"Some limited measurements I have done suggest up to 10% slowdown, though usually less. Possibly some tuning can make it much better." [1]
