Correct me if I'm wrong here. Even though you can get your results with Random
Partitioner, it's a lot less efficient if you're going across different
machines to get your results. If you're doing a lot of range queries, it makes
sense to have things ordered sequentially so that if you do need
Just in case you don't know: You can do range searches on keys even with
Random Partitioner, you just won't get the results in order. If this is good
enough for you (e.g. if you can order the results on the client, or if you
just need to get the right answer, but not the right order), then you shou
