Gautam, if you have a lot of writes, maybe an HA setup is good for you? that way, you could run an embedded HA instance for your writes, and have read slaves, possibly through Neo4j Server instances, picking up the replicated changes to the master write instance. Here, there is a special protocol optimized for big file transfers that syncs up the cluster members.
For normal operations, I would create a server plugin that executes the writes, so you get embedded performance, and do the reads through REST, depending on what nature they are. See http://docs.neo4j.org/chunked/snapshot/server-plugins.html for details. Would that work?
