best result I got was 240gb/30gb split, which I think is not properly
balanced.

i don't know what you mean by *call out specific key spaces?* can you
please explain that a bit.

I think that is the problem. initial 270gb data might not by modeled
correctly. I have run a lot of tests on 270gb data including downsizing it
to 5gb, they all resulted in same uneven distribution. I also tested a
dummy dataset of 2gb which was balanced evenly. coming from rdb, I didn't
give much thought to data modeling. can anyone please point me to some
resources regarding this problem.
