I hope that we don't recommend one chunk per dbspace. I don't think that is
the intention. I think that the intention is simply to state that the new
max size chunk is 4TB and that the max size of a single dbspace is also 4TB.
There is a bit of an advantage if you only have one chunk per physical disk
because IOs during checkpoints are scheduled by chunk. Therefor, you can
minimize disk contention.
However, this advantage does not really exist if you are using disk striping
or RAID-5. Also, if you are using a logical volumn manager and the logical
disk is spread accross multiple physical disks, then I don't think you would
see the advantage.
