I'll assign to myself and put in some release notes about it. At the same time I'll add some documentation for the topic. > Lower default num_tokens > ------------------------ > > Key: CASSANDRA-13701 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-13701 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Local/Config > Reporter: Chris Lohfink > Priority: Low > > For reasons highlighted in CASSANDRA-7032, the high number of vnodes is not > necessary.
