So, on a minimum three-node setup, three replicas + three shards per table are doable? Are there any caveats?

Nice, this will open a whole world of use cases

Are there any performance issues we should know after the Raft implementation?

Being developing with RethinkDB for one year, I can say that it's amazing how fast this database evolved, the API is very flexible, the developer team cares a lot about user feedback, it's a thriving community! Auto failover will be a life saver, but I'm much more anxious for reliable changefeeds :)
