Description
The name of partitions and partition.config is somewhat unfortunate, since it's easy to confuse this with "disk" partitions (e.g. /dev/sda1, /dev/sdb etc.). Our partition is a logical grouping of cache storage, and has no relation to the physical disk underneath.
I feel this is an area of confusion, and we could / should improve on this by renaming configurations, stats and documentation referring to partitions as something else. Suggestions for a different name would be appreciated .
