If you use replication then it's a huge impact on performance as the data gets 
sent over the network. It's also a memory hog so there's less memory and more 
garbage collection. Indexing and merging is slower because of additional bytes 
being copied. If there's a lot of binary data and performance is important and 
diskspace is not a commodity then you shouldn't store it in the index; the 
index size can double during optimizing.
