OK, ClusterCats does one thing that hardware will never do - CF processing
balancing

ClusterCats will send requests to the least busy server for CF requests
while hardware ones will only sent to ones which are still active (ping wise
usually), also ClusterCats will determine if CF isn't running and won't send
to there...
