Hello Roberto,
> Is impressions==connection requests?
An impression is a loaded banner, and we have one banner per page (that we
count). So in our case one impression is one pageview.
We have about 12 hits (requests) per pageview, so that would be 25M+(12*25M)
= 325 million hits/requests per month.

I will, thanks :)

Thanks for the info, yes we're running SCSI on the realservers and i haven't
checked if the driver is working on 2.4 yet, so it might be a good idea to
wait for a while.

Ok, here's another attempt:
Location 1 (4 Mbit max)
--------- Lan
| FS 1 |---
--------- | -----------
---| Router1 |
--------- | -----------
| FS 2 |--- |
--------- |
Internet------------------
|
|
------------
---| Router 2 |
| ------------
-------- |
| VFS1 |----|
-------- |
| Lan
-------- |
| FS 3 |----|
-------- |
|
-------- |
| FS 4 |----
--------
Router 1 has a limit of 4 Mbit
VFS1 is the virtual file server
FS1-4 are the real file servers
Basicly what i want is to load balance between the file servers but put all
load on FS1 & FS2 until the bandwidth usage on Router 1 is up at 4Mbit, then
start using FS3 & FS4 aswell. The load on this cluster is rapidly changing
so it won't work to put static weigths in the scheduler (at low traffic
Location 1 would be able to take all traffic but at high traffic 4Mbit isn't
enough).
I figure i could have a cron job get the bandwidth usage out of router 1 and
adjust the wieghts for FS3&4 in some way...
Comments are very welcome :)

Yepp, thanks for your answer :)
