LH* - Linear Hashing for Distributed Files
Summary: LH* generalizes Linear Hashing to distributed RAM/disk, enabling autonomous clients to create and grow a file bucket by bucket across many servers. It uses 1–3 insert messages and 2–4 lookups per op, sustains 65–95% load, supports parallel operations, and often beats centralized or static parallel hash files.
