Linux Volume Manager. Often used on top of an md device. If you don't know
what it is, you will probably not use it. It can't be installed with the
default Kubuntu installer. You need the alternate CD.
High load when LVM snapshots are present is a known problem.
Unexplained load is often due to I/O problems. Try 'iotop' to see what's
causing I/O.
