This is not needed. Read [this](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/about-the-elasticsearch-category/21) and specifically the "Also be patient" part.

It depends... I'd encourage you looking at Rally project to run your benchmarks.

If you have only one node, then that won't help to change the number of replicas. Note that doing a benchmark with one node if you have in production 10 nodes does not make sense to me. You can't extract any valid number from your test.  
You should test against a similar platform that you will have in production
