A small cluster having 256 vnodes/node is unwise given some of the sequential operations that are still done. Even if operations were done in parallel, having a 256x increase in parallelization seems an equally bad choice. I've never seen any discussion on how many vnodes per node might be an appropriate answer based a planned cluster size -- does such a thing exist? Ken
