RE: "Never split index and data files ..."

Hi All,

The author (Anjo Kolk) is an advocate of SAME (stripe and mirror everything). The SAME philosophy is that "everything" should be striped across all the disks available. Separating indexes from their tables is contrary to that philosophy. I don't agree with it, but that's where he's coming from anyway.
