raidz/2 stripe widths

[Peter C. Lai]

Which one might be "better" on pool that will consist of 6 disks:

6x raidz2

or

2 stripes of 3 disks in raidz?

It should provide slightly less reliability (still allows for 2 disks to be
off the array at a time) but the latter should improve reads since a given 
read only has to touch 3 spindles at a time instead of 5?
