This is one of the reason I use hostname rather IPs. I know people say that DNS lookup has some cost but in my environment with ~300 pools and ~2K servers, we didn't notice any major problem. But, I have to say that I never looked at possible slow downs due to DNS lookups. Other Load balancers, F5 for instance, are strongly suggest to use IPs. > haproxy shows the server name in the server log when it reports health > check statuses.
