Confused with the rehashing policy about twemproxy HOT 3 CLOSED

@highkay I recommend you to read this article about consistent-hashing(http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/56138/Consistent-hashing)

In Consistent Hashing, it is correct. because, consistent hashing doesn't move items position. It just changes where to find key with minimum rehashing of keys.

@charsyam Does it mean there has none solution to access the some of the "old" data after I added a new node in the twemproxy? Because the twemproxy could not find some "old" data on a new node (in fact they are on the old nodes) following the key hashing policy. Does the twemproxy have any automatic way to move the (affacted) data on exist nodes to new nodes?

@highkay you might have to code up a manual workaround to make this happen.
