The Setting up a Venti document on the Wiki mentions concatenating lots
of smaller arenas into a single large log space.  Okay, if I have a big
disk (say, a couple of mirrored 150GB IDE drives), why would I want to
split my log space up into small arenas?  Would it be easier to just
create a single, really big arena and not worry about smaller ones?
I'm sure there's a logical answer, but I'm not aware of what it is.

Also, are there plans to add a read cache to Fossil anytime soon?
