Hi Radim, The number of virtual nodes for each host would be configurable by the user, in much the same way that initial_token is configurable now. A host taking a larger number of virtual nodes (tokens) would have proportionately more of the data. This is how we anticipate support for heterogeneity in cluster hardware.
