persistents connections

["Montervino, Mariano" <mmontervino@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I need to know if LVS resolve the following issue...

Situation:
5 external serves connect to the linux director of the lvs system with 3
real servers. The connection of the external server are persistent (they
never close the connection) and use same keepalive packets to force traffic
in the session.

In that scenario the linux director still balance the load or only do that
if each request are a new connection?

Thanks to all
