I remember there was some performance issue with arbtier+sharding which is fixed in latest 3.8.x release.

I remember we had one user in Redhat who wanted to do the same procedure on his production workload with 3.8.x upstream bits and it worked fine. I forget which version it was. Ravi, do you remember? Looks like 3.8.0 contains the CLI to convert replica 2 to arbiter: http://review.gluster.org/14502 Increasing replica count doesn't trigger rebalance. Self-heal daemon will automatically sync the metadata to the arbiter brick after you add it. -- Pranith
