Neat! There are a few problems with having your / on LVM, and this is
one of them, but as you found, it's possible to make it all work. I
will try this with /home as the cached LV, because my / is on a regular
partition on the SSD instead of on an LV. And then see what bonnie++ or
a similar benchmark[0] reports for /home before and after the cacheing
change.

damned lies, statistics, benchmarks, and vendor promises.
