mod_jk neither supports round-robin, nor random load-balancing.
Currently you can choose between three algorithms:
method=B (busyness): choose the worker with the lowwest number of
requests currently in processing.
method=R (requests): choose the worker that did the lowest number of
requests until now
method=T (traffic): choose the worker that received+sent the lowwest
number of bytes until now
In case you use "busyness", you might observe behaviour that's very
close to round-robin during times of very low load. If load is very low,
most of the time all workers will have no request in processing. So the
busyness counter will always be equal to zero. Then mod_jk will pick on
worker after the other, similar to round-robin.
As soon as there will be real load, behaviour will differ.

Is it possible to change mod_jk's load-balacing algorithm to random (from
round robin)?
If yes, how?
