There was a discussion about this scheme a while back.
There is another paper which described another scheme which was similar
called "Symmetric Replication", which was intended for Chord. Maybe that
paper answers your questions, it seemed kind of independent of the system
size. It can be found here:

I was looking at the paper : Replication strategies for Reliable
Decentralised Storage
(it can be found at : http://urchin.earth.li/~mleslie/mleslieStorage.pdf)
It describes a strategy : replication at successor, wich is not a real
replication at successor as DHash is, but it tries to imitate the
successor placement with the function :
ReplicaKey(key,repNumber) = key + (replicaNumber * NetSize /numberOfPeers)
mod NetSize.
Thank you.
Julien.
