Hi!
I haven't found anything about this topic anywhere so I was hoping
someone in the mailinglist has done this in the past :)
We are at the size where we need to round-robin tcp balance our incoming
web traffic with pf to two haproxy servers both running with nbproc 28
for http load balancing, however, this leads to 56 healthchecks being
done each second against our web nodes which hammers them quite hard.
How exactly are you guys solving this issue? Because at this size, the
healthchecks kind of starts eating more cpu than they are helpful.
