> Current bootstrapping involves (to my knowledge) picking tokens and streaming 
> data before the node is available for requests.  This can be problematic with 
> "fat nodes", since it may require 20TB of data to be streamed over before the 
> machine can be useful.  This can result in a massive window of time before 
> the machine can do anything useful.
> As a potential approach to mitigate the huge window of time before a node is 
> available, I suggest modifying the bootstrap process to only acquire a single 
> initial token before being marked UP.  This would likely be a configuration 
> parameter "incremental_bootstrap" or something similar.
> After the node is bootstrapped with this one token, it could go into UP 
> state, and could then acquire additional tokens (one or a handful at a time), 
> which would be streamed over while the node is active and serving requests.  
> The benefit here is that with the default 256 tokens a node could become an 
> active part of the cluster with less than 1% of it's final data streamed over.
