> There are two things this jira tries to address:
> 1. The locality picker in the stochastic balancer does not pick regions with least locality as candidates for swap/move. So when any user configures locality cost in the configs, the balancer does not always seems to move regions with bad locality. 
> 2. When a cluster has equal number of loaded regions, it always picks the first one. It should pick a random region on one of the equally loaded servers. This improves a chance of finding a good candidate, when load picker is invoked several times.
