Oh ok. I am not sure how I got the round-robin thing in my head. Anyhow, how does one configure this? I assume this is load balancer worker type configuration.

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.
