Just take notice that sequencial logical volume (partition) may be not sequencial on the physical volume (There's a logical extent to physical extent mapping). However, there is a good chance most/all of your partition is sequencial, especially if you created the volume group and the logical volumes when the disk was empty (e.g: during installation) without requiring a striped logical volume (it's not the default).
