Ticket #1124, comment 7
initial v1 1 The intent of the algorithm is to identify servers with more than one share, and make those shares homeless so that they can be redistributed to peers that might not have had any shares assigned to them yet. It is a greedy algorithm that doesn't quite do the trick in a lot of situations, and it seems like this is one of them. {{{test_problem_layout_comment_187}}} is another such layout; it is marked as todo, because we hope to change the uploader to do a better job of share redistribution in 1.8. This might be a feature of #1126, or might be another ticket that hasn't been made yet.1 The intent of the algorithm is to identify servers with more than one share, and make some of the shares on those servers homeless so that they can be redistributed to peers that might not have had any shares assigned to them yet.
