If this maps what's currently been done in mod_jk, than a big +1. It's been on my todo but have simply not had the cycles to do. I liked the new busyness algo, but then there was a total rewrite (well, not total) of it all, most likely since mod_jk doesn't want to use providers, that makes all the lb determination "by value"... I was thinking about extended the LB structs to also include some sort of LB lbstatus calculation which meant another cool abstraction and making the whole make-lb-algos-independent closer to reality. > > 2.

Still +1 for the effort :) -- =========================================================================== Jim Jagielski [|] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [|] http://www.jaguNET.com/ "If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball."
