Comment (by davidsarah):

 In [http://www.info.ucl.ac.be/~pvr/beernet-phd-cl.pdf Boris Mejias'
 thesis], the non-uniform distribution problem in ring-based DHTs is
 mentioned in section 2.3.1. He references
 [http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/summary?doi=10.1.1.91.6877 this
 paper] on how to solve it, although I haven't checked whether that would
 be applicable to Tahoe.
