we have choices of making one big cluster vs a few small clusters. I am trying to get pros and cons for both options in genera.

Let's say we will have 15 physical machines available, we can use all of them to form a big cluster or divide them into 3 clusters with 5 nodes each. As we will deploy to 1.2, it becomes easier to expand the cluster with vnodes. I really don't see any good reasons to make 3 smaller clusters. Did I miss anything obvious? Thanks. -Wei
