Hi Christian, One of the reasons we always recommend to have a minimum of 5 nodes in the cluster is that the responsibility for fall-back partitions can be distributed fairly evenly among the remaining nodes if one goes down. With only 4 nodes in the cluster it is much less likely that the responsibility for fall-back partitions will be evenly distributed, and you may experience some nodes getting much more than others.
If you were to add a node to your cluster and perform the test again you should see a much more even distribution.
