This is exactly like Zerg http://erlangonxen.org/zerg the requirements are that haproxy:
- triggers launching a new backend immediately on accepting the tcp handshake or ssl initiation - holds the frontend tcp connection open until the new backend is spun up - triggers closing the backend on close of that same connection Maintaining a small pool of pre initialized backends might be the simplest way to handle this in practice. I'm definitely curious if this is possible. BTW we have come full circle to preforking Apache httpd… PHP style...
