Implement ramp-up when starting new nodes ----------------------------------------- Key: MODCLUSTER-449 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/MODCLUSTER-449 Project: mod_cluster Issue Type: Feature Request Components: Core & Container Integration (Java) Affects Versions: 1.2.0.Final, 1.3.0.Final Reporter: Radoslav Husar Assignee: Radoslav Husar Priority: Blocker Fix For: 2.0.0.Alpha1, 1.4.0.Alpha1 Attachments: httpdRamp-up.jpg, undertowRamp-up.jpg IIUC this has been a problem since inception. The problem is that the initial load stays in effect for performing load-balancing decisions until a new stat interval kicks in. This effect is mitigated by load decay over time, but for the time a new node joins in, it can get overloaded upon startup.
