I distribute tokens like described in "Operations": http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/Operations:085070591730234615865843651857942052864So delay in my second experiment(where i got big delay in insert), appear as result of delay communications between nodes? >
That was the theory, assuming you are using replication factor of 1. It is difficult to say where the key falls just by looking at the ring - random partitioner could through this key on either node. After writing 1 million rows you could actually see some SSTables in data directory on one node and none on the other.
