Sorry Ziya, i'm not positive what you mean.  What i was thinking was
if your classification scheme distributes the items evenly across all
your nodes, then it's kind of irrelevent, users are hitting the same
amount of content regardless of where they go.  If the bulk of your
items are in a single node (or group of nodes) then it may be
important for people to know (depending on the classification scheme).
 Is that the same thing you were going after?
