Hi Geoffrey, I'm sorry for the outcome, but I think you are missing the most important aspect here:
nobody was flaming or reluctant to offer you support - but reviewing a production script from 0 in 2 hours it is fantasy job. That was what all the people tried to explain you. I, as a consultant, wouldn't compromise the quality of my work in order to do a best effort jobs - to do the best in reviewing a totally new production script in couple of hours. Last time when I did something similar, it took 2 days! So, bottom line, nobody wanted to commit for something that cannot be done. Nobody wanted to do a lauzy job just to take your money. Because what you were requesting was not possible - that was the only issue. Anyhow, you lost the opportunity to use a real load-balancer module (with load monitoring and call tracking) for your platform :P..
