Hi Nick, My understanding of the tokens in Cassandra is that the key is inserted in the node which has the closest token [1]. This is very similar to clustering with the k-means approach, where every vector gets assigned to the cluster with the closest center. That is not equivalent to the min/max

Tokens are really no different than thresholds. Your token is your min and your neighbors token is your max. To change your min, you move your token. To change your max you move your neighbors token. Your idea of calculating optimal number of keys is similar to the load balancing idea described

Hi All, There might be a simpler way to make the OPP achieve even, or close to even loads. The small change here is that the OPP has to use thresholds to distribute keys instead of centers. Every node should have a MIN and a MAX threshold. A key gets inserted in a node x if MIN_x MAX_(n-1), then
