Actually i would not be using any edge supports, only back supports, which are 9-3 point triangles made of fiber composite material with dabs of silicone on each point, these triangles would be semi-curved and interposed between convex mirror back and concave composite cell,like i said before a very thin mirror has much less thermal mass than a thick mirror and equillibrates much faster.
