We looked at LVS, and it seemed pretty robust and straightforward.

Barracuda also makes hardware LBs, and at a price that schmucks the
competition.  That's the direction we're going instead; it'll be far
cheaper than even building our own with LVS.

Unfortunately, I don't have the LBs yet, and won't have them until our
strange fiscal year starts in June, so I can't give you any reviews.
They're at least worth a look, though.
