Several remarks here: - Pound never used round-robin. It still does not. - Connection counting is not a very useful metric. The same back-end may be used in several contexts (perhaps even with different addresses or ports), so the number of connections is not very informative. - you may want to look at the DynScale code - it probably does some of what you need. > Clustering via multiple includes of the same file is clever.

Besides, think of the next sysadmin, who will need to work with your installation. I would also question the use case for it: do you really need hundreds of files included? If it is just a handful it is not so difficult to include them explicitly. -- Robert Segall Apsis GmbH Postfach, Uetikon am See, CH-8707 Tel: +41-32-512 30 19 -- To unsubscribe send an email with subject unsubscribe to [email protected].
