Load balancing and network design is left as an exercise to the reader,

The first step is to determine the number of partitions that will be in the
ring. We recommend that there be a minimum of 100 partitions per drive to
insure even distribution accross the drives. A good starting point might be
insure even distribution across the drives. A good starting point might be
to figure out the maximum number of drives the cluster will contain, and then
multiply by 100, and then round up to the nearest power of two.
