Hi Team,

Why did you replace the simple "hostpath provisioner" from the initial project with "topo-lvm" ?
Hostpath runs 1 container, while topo-lvm ist much slower on simple edge hardware and much more complicated . It also runs a total of 8 containers.
Edge-Devices typically have one sinlge SD-Card, so why bother with a LVM management for PVs instead of simple subdirectories ?
