Oracle over ADVFS - State of the art

Hi,

I would like to get comments and experiences on installing an Oracle
database over ADVFS, instead of staying with the 'we know it works
fine' rule of thumb which recommend raw devices.

Does anybody have values and remarks on the performance degradation
inherent to using the O/S File System?
For those who decided to install Oracle databases on top of Advfs, do
you make use of the nice features of Advfs :
- do you clone the File System whilst Oracle is running (hot backup
purpose) ?
- do you HOT migrate and defragment ?
- did you stripe the datafiles over n axis thanks to ADVFS, or did you
only consider the general advises provided by Oracle (different
tablespaces split over existing axis)

Of course, I will summarize your answers
