Also some side notes:

"top" is even better on new 1.4.2 than on 1.3.1 machines.. IO
utilization of disk is mostly the same (round about 33%)..

but

95th percentile of response time for get (avg over all nodes):
  before upgrade: 29ms
  after upgrade: almost the same

95th percentile of response time for put (avg over all nodes):
  before upgrade: 60ms
  after upgrade: 1548ms 
    but this is only because of 2 of 12 nodes are
    on 1.4.2 and are really slow (17000ms)

Cheers,
Simon
