I am not sure what difference it makes to have Riak or Riak CS for data storage, in the context of having a separate search cluster. Would you elaborate?

Yokozuna and CS (or plain Riak) use different backend configurations[0,1]. So beyond having physically distinct clusters, you'd get to have purpose optimized storage, but with a common management regime.
