1) Depends on your document routing strategy. It sounds like you could be using the compositeId strategy and if so, there's still a hash range assigned to each shard, so you can split the big shards into smaller shards.
2) Since you're replicating in 2 places, when one of your servers crash, there will still be one copy of the shard. When the new server comes online, you should specify -Dshard=ID and the data will be pulled over from the healthy replica using good ol' snapshot replication. btw: ID is the shard Id of the server that crashed 3) No comment on this ;-) Post back if you find a good one.
