Is a RAID 1 array of two disks sufficient for WAL?  What's a typical
setup for a high performance PostgreSQL installation?  RAID 1 for WAL
and RAID 10 for data?

I've read that splitting the WAL and data offers huge performance
benefits.  How much additional benefit is gained by moving indexes to
another RAID array?  Would you typically set the indexes RAID array up
as RAID 1 or 10?
