      We currently advise customers that mongodb tools that do bulk ingestion using fire&forget with occasional getLastError need to be updated to use the new bulk api to avoid a performance degradation.

      Client applications coded in a similar manner using any driver (not just mongodb tools) in a sharded environment will see a similar performance degradation until they update the app to use the new bulk write operations, but I don't think we advise customers of that. See SERVER-14003 for some numbers for one such tool (mongorestore).
