So, for balancers (slotmems) needs, how about: - All IP:port from server_addr_rec list + - ServerName + - ServerAlias(es) (i.e. hash/MD5 thereof). ? The rationale is that this is solely what determines the "election" of a server_rec for each request. All duplicates, since nothing is enforced on this in httpd (should it?), would never be elected at runtime (i.e. ignored). We may want to detect the case though, or do we blindly reuse slotmems for them (w/o any consistency checks)? Regards, Yann.
