However, I would assume dependency?
Eg. if. a node holding a copy of the object is down and traffic needs to be re-routed to a slower node. Indifferently of how many requests I send, the latency will still be high?
(I am genuinly curious of this is the case)
So while you could get unlucky and routed to same bad node / bad rack, the reality is that it is quite unlikely.
And while the testing here is simulated, this is a technique that is used with success.
