people don't like DNS RR. The problem I know about is
that you can't flush people's caches when you want them
flushed (and you shouldn't be able to flush them when you
want either).
I don't know if this is a problem: what happens if a client
gets a different address for the server in the middle of a connection?

this is true, but why is it a problem (there's several issues
here and I don't want to spend my time talking about the ones you
understand).

on the director or the realservers?
