My first results showed almost the same throughput for LVM-mirror and MD-RAID1 with a slight better performance on LVM-mirror (but only 1-2 MB/sec).
But then I tested with _two_ files simultaneously on the same filesystem and there I found a much better performance on read with MD-RAID1 (about 1.5 times of LVM-mirror or no mirror).
