Hello Gordon,

Thanks a lot for the information. I suppose we will try to use a load balancer 
to understand the difference between balanced and unbalanced client connections 
to a qpid cluster.


Best Regards,
Sergey Zhemzhitsky

There is no built in support for load balancing; there is some benefit in doing 
so, however. The node to which a connection is actually connected to will do a 
little more work. Spreading that work should result in some performance 
improvement, even though the majority of the load will be replicated on each 
node.
