pound - load balancer / Andre Hübner <andre.huebner@gmx.de>

Hello,

i am interested in Pound as a load Balancer. Its very helpful that 
session-data are kept. :)
But what i want to know is if pound is acting as a "real" balancer and 
checks if back-ends are slowing down etc.
is there a kind of counting response-time/load-check etc. implemented?

Thanks,
Andre

from experience by using Pound?

As far as I know, there is no "slowing down" check, just an "alive" check.
See the High-Availability section of pound's man(8) page [1] and the
HAport configuration directive.
