Nice article on load balancing

[Malcolm <lists@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Willy Tarreau's written a nice article on load balancing that covers 
layer 4 & layer 7 options.
I still don't think layer 7 can ever give high availability.. but its a 
good read:
Making applications scalable with Load Balancing

He's written HAProxy which I'm just testing now and so far it looks very 
good.
It should probably be added to the LVS docs somewhere as a layer 7 solution?
Supports cookie insertion & SNAT etc.

I don't recall anyone mentioning it before?
