Worth sharing a pointer to a really neat set of papers that describe open source friendly RAID6 and erasure encoding algorithms that were presented last year and this at FAST:

If I remember correctly, James Plank's papers also have implemented and benchmarked the various encodings,


I have seen the papers; I'm not sure it really makes that much difference. One of the things that bugs me about these papers is that he compares to *his* implementation of my optimizations, but not to my code. In real life implementations, on commodity hardware, we're limited by memory and disk performance, not by CPU utilization.
