Miles,
The weight parameter was added as part of the consistent hash feature added
to parent selection with TS-2996. It was never intended for the other
round robin strategies.
yes, for round robin = true, a client will always get the same parent until
that parent fails and is marked down. When

Miles,
The weight is only used for round_robin = consistent_hash. It is ignored for
all other strategies.
In the consistent hash strategy, weight defaults to 1 and it’s a multiplier to
the number of replicas of
A parent inserted alon the hash ring.
Round_robin=true returns a parent from an arr
Hey folks-
I'd like to update the parent.config documentation to include the
weightings feature -- there is an example that shows it, but no text
that describes it. So, I have some questions :)
- I assume that if someone includes a weight for each parent, the
