happens when a host connects to the cluster for the first time after

So a user request www.website.com, DNS round-robin points the user

what happens when a the user makes another request ?
"It depends". The client is in control of that. Clients are different.
The setup I usually recommend is to have CARP (or similar) move one IP
around and then ahve nginx or perlbal running to load balance to the
actual servers.
