Digging out the orphan pages from the old blog, I came across this:
Interesting article on OpenTalk load balancing. Especially interesting is this quote:
Question from Len - which will distribute load better - a random round robin, or a sequential? Something for us to think about as he gets ready to run. The sequential distributed pretty evenly. There are some useful statistics available from the clients and servers - how long (aggregate) requests queued up, etc. Random round robin does worse, as the random assignment sometimes tosses "too much" load at a single server.
Apple == The Ass, or Saved By The Blogs
Submitted by reeses on Fri, 2004-04-23 13:20. | Mac | networksAlong with the rest of the world, I am frequently amazed at the incredible and awe-inspiring incompetence when it comes to Apple QA'ing their software updates.
Earlier this week, the Apple Airport 3.4 update came up on SU. Hey, it'll improve output control! I installed it, and discovered the reception meter dropped by a little bit. No big deal, it all still worked.
When I got home today, everything worked fine for about an hour, then pfft. The signal meter registered a signal, but I couldn't obtain a DHCP lease. I configured the host/gw addresses, to no avail.
