For detailed information, please look at this email because it contains 
much information about things to be aware of:

As a general rule, having few big replicas will reduce the time needed 
to rebalance the volume when it's expanded with more bricks, but the 
time needed to heal one brick will be higher.

On the other hand, many small replicas will be healed faster, but 
rebalance will take more time.

Regarding RDMA, it's considered tech preview now. In theory it will be 
fully supported starting with 3.6.2.
