bq: If you switch to SolrCloud, will you still keep numShards parameter to 1

yes. Although if you want to add more replicas you might want to specify that.

For 10M documents, I wouldn't be very fancy. Indexing them shouldn't take
very long, and I think your time would be better spent on other things than
trying to get fancy with splitshard and the like. Just create a
SolrCloud cluster
with as many replicas as you want and index from scratch unless it's
prohibitively expensive.

I can index 200M docs on my local Mac Pro in a couple of hours. Is it really
worth trying to do something you'll probably never do again (i.e. SPLITSHARD)?

If you really don't want to re-index _and_ you have only one shard in the
master/slave setup, here's what I'd do to migrate
1> create a new SolrCloud cluster with exactly one node (i.e. the "leader").
2> shut it down
3> copy the index from your master/slave to the new node, completely
     replacing the data directory
4> bring the node back up and check it.
5> use the collecitons API ADDREPLICA command to bring up as many
    replicas as you want, they'll pull down the index and from that point on
    you should be good.
5a> In this case, it'll actually do a complete replication from the leader to
     the followers, but thereafter incremental updates will be sent to all
     the nodes in the cluster rather than the older style master/slave
     occasional replication.

Best,
Erick
