Hi experts,
I have a 6 node cluster across 2 DCs(DC1:3, DC2:3). I have assigned
tokens using the first strategy(adding 1) mentioned here -
http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/Operations?#Token_selection
But when I run nodetool ring on my cluster, this is the result I get -
Address DC Rack Status State Load Owns Token

As you can see the first node has considerably more load than the
others(almost double) which is surprising since all these are replicas of
each other. I am running Cassandra 0.8.4. Is there an explanation for this
behaviour? Could https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2433 be
the cause for this?
Thanks
