Yes, it's default redundancy.

Yes, it's correct behavior. Sheepdog cannot detect which objects are
updated from the previous node membership change, so it is safe to
receive all objects from the already joined nodes. However, as you
say, it's worth considering to optimize it.

Yes. Currently, if a virtual machine accesses to the object which is
not placed on the right nodes (it could happen because of node
membership changes), sheepdog stops the access until the object is
moved to the right node. But this behavior should be fixed as soon as
possible, I think.

The reason 'collie node info' sleeps is same with above. The problem
that sheep crashes would be fixed by the following patch. Thanks for
your feedback.

Subject: [PATCH] sheep: call free_request() after decrementing reference counters
We cannot call free_req() here because client_decref() accesses
req->ci.
