intellibootstrap

Key: CASSANDRA-385
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-385
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Jonathan Ellis
ideally bootstrap mode should determine its new position on the ring by
examining the Load of the existing nodes in the cluster. (currently Load is
just disk space used but making this pluggable is another ticket.) having
found the highest-load-node-that-is-not-participating-in-bootstrap, it should
ask that node for a Token which would move half the keys over to the new node.
This is easily computed since we have a periodic sampling of keys in memory of
all the keys on disk, and even SSTable.getIndexedKeys that merges all such
keys. So pick the midpoint, and turn it into a token (these are decorated keys
so that is always possible).
