Ok, so it would be even better to have a separate partition that is
just LVM with no filesystem, and just have raw disk images stored
there for the VM's then? That makes a lot of sense, I'll have to try
that out. Is that what RHEV is doing? Thanks again!

LVM without ext4 (each guest disk mapped directly to a logical volume) will
be faster still, though you will need to allocate all space ahead of time.
