Mind there is a flipside: if the requests actually hit the WMS you might
get out of memory or just poor performance in general (thrashing).
That's why I developed the control-flow module:
http://docs.geoserver.org/2.0.x/en/user/community/controlflow/index.html

On the flipside, if you're hitting a tile cache there's another way
to get around that issue, which is to using multiple domain names for
your servers and tell OL to round robin the requests on those.
See for example:
