A number of the schedulers seem to use an is_overloaded() function that 
limits the number of connections to twice the server's weight.  I'm using 
the dh scheduler to balance across 3 machines - once the connections 
exceed twice the weight, it refuses new connections from IP addresses that 
aren't currently persistent.

This in itself isn't really a problem, but I can't find this behaviour 
actually documented anywhere - all the documentation refers to the 
weights as being "relative to the other hosts" which means there should 
be no difference between me setting the weights on all hosts to 5 or 
setting them all to 500.
