Hello list, I've about 5000 hostnames + path that should be mapped to 3000
backends or so. I'm using map converters and the lay out is something like this:
/dir/file.map
d1.tld/path/sub back1
d1.tld/path back2
d2.tld/path/sub/other back3
d2.tld/path/sub back4
d2.tld/path back5
d3.tld/path/sub back6
d3.tld/path back7
And frontend looks like this:
http-request set-var(req.backend) base,map_beg(/dir/file.map)
use_backend %[var(req.backend)] if { var(req.backend) -m found }
The problem here is that the map has about 5k lines and the search isn't
indexed. I could eg split this map into smaller ones and create an index of
maps stored in another map, but cannot use the result because the file name
param in the converter cannot be dynamic. Any other idea to help haproxy find
the backend in a faster way?
