---------------------------------------------------------------

Agreed it is the first replica. When I said "the remote DC target list", I 
should have been more precise and said "the remote DC's replicas".

Regardless, always sending mutations to the same replica in the remote DC can 
still create more load on the first IP among the remote DC's replicas, as it 
will have to do more work to pass along the message, in addition to persisting 
the mutation itself. Java driver has done something to address a similar 
situation. See https://datastax-oss.atlassian.net/browse/JAVA-553 and 
https://datastax-oss.atlassian.net/browse/JAVA-504.

> I was looking at the o.a.c.service.StorageProxy code and realized that it 
> seems to be always picking the first IP in the remote DC target list as the 
> destination, whenever it needs to send the mutation to a remote DC. See these 
> lines in the code:
> https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/1944bf507d66b5c103c136319caeb4a9e3767a69/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/service/StorageProxy.java#L1280-L1301
> This could cause one node in the remote DC receiving more mutation messages 
> than the other nodes, and hence uneven workload distribution.
> A trivial test (with TRACE logging level enabled) on a 3+3 node cluster 
> proved the problem, see the system.log entries below:
