I'm keeping my shards small (1-5 GB), I do not disable shard allocation, the recovery is fast enough (a few minutes)
Gateway is local, the default. I keep backups on the file system, with plain cp -a or rsync, but also on the data source side - I can reindex everything in a few hours, I have only ~100 mio. docs to index. Because I don't operate a shared file system, I can not use ES 1.0 snapshot/restore yet.
