network of brokers question

[ami.rozen]

Hi
We are using the activemq brokers in a high scale production environment.
To prevent downtime we decided to configure the brokers to work as a network
of brokers.
There are 2 brokers which use a fixed list of urls to connect to each other.
The clients and services use the failover url with a list of the available
brokers.
Currently we have 2 clients that connect to the brokers and we saw (in the
brokers UI) that the messages aren't distributed in an even way.
1) Is this ok ? 
2) is there a configuration to distribute the messages evenly between the
brokers ?
3) Is there an additional configuration which can bust the performance ? We
don't mind losing messages if one of the brokers is down.

The configuration we are using in the broker xml file is:
        <networkConnectors>
            <networkConnector name="default-dev13"
uri="static://(tcp://host_name:61616)"/>
        </networkConnectors>
        <!-- The transport connectors ActiveMQ will listen to -->
        <transportConnectors>
            <transportConnector name="openwire"
uri="tcp://localhost:61616?jms.prefetchPolicy.queuePrefetch=100&amp;jms.useAsyncSend=true&amp;wireFormat.maxInactivityDuration=0"/>
            <transportConnector name="ssl" uri="ssl://localhost:61617"/>
            <transportConnector name="stomp" uri="stomp://localhost:61613"/>
            <transportConnector name="xmpp" uri="xmpp://localhost:61222"/>
        </transportConnectors>
Thank you
Ami
