"The downside is that if the desired server is really down, the request will eventually fail."
I wouldn't want this, the reason why I am using a load balancer is to have high availability, not just to balance a load. How can I overcome this? Aren't there any alternatives? Also what does it mean to be busy? Currently I am using my pc to act as a load balancer in front of powerfull servers and there is only one page request, how can it be busy?
