(I'm also running RF2, W_CL1, R_CL1 atm - so this is theoretical) As I understand it, the most significant performance hit will be to the variation in response time. For example with R_CL1, (roughly) 1% of requests will be take more than the worst 10% of server response times. With R_CL=QUORUM 2.8% of requests will have the same latency.
