Re: A little nit

+1.

As an alternative... an execute-on-read directive of ProxyBalancerPrecision
or similarly named directive (default 100, but drop or add decimals as
they will)
would let anyone add in or sub out a decimal.

My thought, taking away 1000 (3 decimal) from 2bn really wouldn't be a
hardship on any common config.
