Hi,

I'm replacing my hardware and need to spec what to use for a pair of 
dedicated load-balancer machines.  Would it make sense to go with 
something with as many cores as possible?  I could then make the 
worker_processes say 8?

I propose to use heartbeat and drbd to make an HA cluster from two machines.

Could you point me to the documentation that creates pools of machines 
across which to balance?  Also, what algorithms are available for balancing?

Thanks,

S.
