The old algorithm tries to converge to 0, despite it would mean a very unbalanced situation. We're aiming for an ideal ratio of 1, meaning both the 'from' and 'to' slave have the same load. Therefore, we only move an entry if it decreases the load on from, and brings us closer to equal traffic load.
