It takes 45 seconds for ldirector/heartbeat to failover from a locked up
master to the waiting slave for a 50 site system with 2 real servers
each. 500 sites at 10 real servers will be a lot longer time than that.
Horms mentioned that another (mon?) might be faster at failing over, but
once this system went live, it became harder to change from one core
program to another. Once we moved all site LB off the router onto this
system, it made it even harder to change things. Not impossible, just
harder :-)
