Implements consistent hashing that can be used when the number of
|
|
server nodes can increase or decrease (like in memcached). The
|
|
hashing ring is built using the same algorithm as libketama.
|
|
|
|
Consistent hashing is a scheme that provides a hash table functionality
|
|
in a way that the adding or removing of one slot does not significantly
|
|
change the mapping of keys to slots.
