I have run a pretty straightforward test. I created a two brick 50 G
replica volume with normal lvm bricks, and installed two servers, one
centos 6.6 and one centos 7.0. I kicked off bonnie++ on both to generate
some file system activity and then made the volume replica 3. I saw no
issues on the servers.
Not clear if this is a sufficiently rigorous test and the Volume I have had
issues on is a 3TB volume with about 2TB used.

I don't think I have the resources to test it meaningfully. I
have about
50 vms on my primary storage domain. I might be able to set up a small 50
GB volume and provision 2 or 3 vms running test loads but I'm not sure it
would be comparable. I'll give it a try and let you know if I see similar
behaviour.
