[Openstack] EC stability status in openstack swift

Hi,

I wanted to understand the stability of the erasure coding feature in
openstack swift. Is it in widespread production use?
We're exploring the possibility of using EC instead of replication on
few of our servers which are not so loaded in terms of storage
capacity.
Also, I expect EC to be more CPU intensive than replication. Is there
some recommended minimum configuration to support EC?

Thanks in advance.
