I wouldn't say that, those were just examples of setups that we have. They
handle very different queries. :) While the RAID example has less queries
and at times higher disk IO, it handles complex SELECT queries along with
INSERT/UPDATEs; 99% of the queries on the non-RAID setup are simple
UPDATEs.
