I think the performance problems he mentioned (I/O performance etc) were
when a self-heal is triggered. If the replicate xlator is not loaded self-heal
is never triggered. Could you raise bugs for the problems you are facing so
that it will be improved in next releases.

Just out of curiosity, can you please tell more why it is evil? I just
found it out after your first post and want to know if there's any
gotchas :)

Have you tried setting performance.client-io-threads on if it makes any
difference?
As a side note I have to say that I have seen similar problems with
RAID-5 systems even when using them as non-replicated iSCSI target. In
my experience it's definetly not good for hosting VM images.
