This sounds like exactly what our load-balancing system is made for. Here
at Talk City, we run just one Servlet which is the dispatcher for lots of
java code for part of our system. That code is balance across 16 instances
of java on four machines (4 instances per machine). Each initial request is
distributed among the 16 machines and the sessions return to the issuing
instance.
The FAQ has documentation on how to set that up with the existing JServ
system. I've also written a watchdog which we use to launch our JVM's and
watch them to keep them running in case one freezes or dies. That is
checked into jserv_whiteboard and I've recently gotten contributions from
an NT programmer to make it work there.
Let me know if I can help.
