Ok. I had thought device-mapper might only be an issue with loopback images but it is ok to use with raw block devlices. It seems that is not the main issue with the device-mapper backend.  
At the moment I use overlay as think I would need to compile my own kernel to use aufs (Which I can do, just more convient to use the pre-compiled kernel).
