---------------------------------------------------------------

Hi [~gargsha] , [~mjsax] , I tried reproducing this,  in 3.9.0 the consumer 
throughput drops a lot (~250MB/s → ~90MB/s) when {{{}min.insync.replicas=2{}}}.

I noticed {{findPreferredReadReplica}} only picks from ISR. When followers drop 
out, consumers end up reading only from the leader, which seems to cause the 
slowdown.

Would it be safe to let consumers read from out-of-ISR followers if they have 
the data (with HW checks), or is that too risky
