here are my quick thoughts.

First, to solve your AFR performance problem, use only 2 bricks per AFR
use unify (or DHT) to combine your multiple AFR bricks into a single 
representation.

for your loads of small files use the Berkeley DB translator, as it's 
apparently much faster for small files.  ( you may need to use the 
switch scheduler within unify to make sure the right files get to the 
right bricks.)

Beyond that, hopefully someone with a deeper understanding of all the 
translators can help
