If I said that you wanted a high availability solution with
only one advertised IP (rather than 2) would this describe what
you are doing?

hmm, I'm not going to be able to get 100 clients onto this
so I may not see what you see. If you have 100 clients
making requests every 1024 secs, thats only 1 request
every 10secs. You seem to be getting more than that.
Even at startup with 1 request every 64secs, that's only
2 requests/sec.
