1) Hedwig hubs only update the load while claiming topics. We should also 
update the load while releasing topics. 
{quote}

ah, ur right. it would make the requests really unbalance if some hubs release 
topics periodically.

{quote}
we introduce a rebalanceCluster() function in the HubServerManager interface.

I am guessing who does the balance work. Each hub server runs independently? Or 
a hub server would be elected as a leader to do it? 

I am doubting if each hub server runs independently, hub servers might make a 
wrong decision to releasing topics, which cause lots of topics to be released.

> When a new hub is added to an already existing hedwig cluster, that hub

> distributed evenly among hubs and if not, releases some topics to balance the 
> load.
