The described technology is generally directed towards mapping doubly mapped storage clusters to resources of a real storage cluster in a way that provides high performance. In one aspect, the doubly mapped storage clusters are divided into logical columns, with each logical column corresponding to a doubly mapped node, and having a column height corresponding to a number of storage resources (e.g., disks multiplied by disk extents) managed by that doubly mapped node. The columns are logically positioned within a logical profile having dimensions of the real storage cluster. For example, the logical columns can be selected based on column height, and placed in the logical profile based on free disk extents of the nodes, greatest number of free disk extents first. Once logically positioned, the logical columns in the logical rectangle establish the mapping (e.g., embodied in a mapping table) that results in high performance.
