Can you upgrade? There's a big diff between 1.2 and 1.0.

Could try halving the handler count.

How is the distribution? Evenly over the keyspace?

Tell us more about this scaling up? How many writers?

5.6 is high enough. Is the i/o spread over the disks?

If you double the clients writing do you see an up in the throughput?

If you thread dump the servers, can you tell where they are held up? Or if
they are doing any work at all relative?
