Vijay commented on CASSANDRA-3772:
----------------------------------
But implementing a IParitiner will have the same problem as the original option

in all the servers at once (And he shouldn't be changing in the existing
clusters which already has some data in it). I am ok with that too...

> MD5 is a relatively heavyweight hash to use when we don't need cryptographic
> qualities, just a good output distribution. Let's see how much overhead we
> can save by using Murmur3 instead.
