In HA our usage of ZK is a little different than systems like Hadoop, 
SolrCloud, etc.  We only use ZK for the leader follower elections and we use 
Apache River for the distributed state transfer, i.e. writes/updates are not 
sent through ZK.  As such, it's likely that you won't see issues with 
co-hosting ZKs on the same machines.  We are doing internal testing with the 
effects of running an embedded ZK as our usages is fairly light.
