I don't remember where I found the documentation, but I know I did. (man 
page maybe...)

 From what I remember, "rack awareness" directs reads to the servers in 
the same rack/group as the client but still distributes writes/chunks 
"randomly".

I was /hoping/ that it would distribute chunks according to rack/group, 
and maybe become a mechanism to distribute data to multiple sites, but I 
too was disappointed. Still, it is a valuable feature and maybe it will 
be extended sometime later.
