When you divide 2^32 across 3 machines, you get 1431655766, 1431655765, 1431655765. They're nearly identical, just an itsy bitsy bit different. This isn't going to cause one machine to have noticeably less load than the others.

Then what is being discussed? I thought this thread was about 3 servers, of which one has lower load due to an int32 overflowing.
