I believe there are caveats that it will only really help if you're not using vnodes, or you have a very small cluster, and also internode encryption is not enabled. Alternatively if you're using JBOD vnodes will be marginally better, but JBOD is not a great idea (and doesn't guarantee a massive improvement).
