Question regarding XFS on LVM over hardware RAID.

Howdy folks,
I understand that XFS have stripe unit and width configured according to
the underlying RAID device when using LVM, but I was wondering if this
is still the case when a given XFS-formatted logical volume takes up
only part of the available space on the RAID. In particular, I could
imagine that stripe width would need to be modified proportionally with
the decrease in filesystem size. My intuition says that's false, but
I wanted to check with folks who know for sure.
Thanks for any help!
