I implemented the "round robin" because you guys kept bugging me about it. It was an FAQ, and still is. :-( I didn't make it the default because it just isn't good practice to change semantics on people, especially when it can only be considered "experimental" compared to the previous implementation as it says on the WIKI page. In many respects, the sticky behaviour (that isn't actually guaranteed - its just an undocumented feature of Sun's HashSet implementation) is good as well if one instance can keep up with the load. e.g. if the MDB is doing DB processing, that instance will already have relevant info the cache. e.g. you might want to avoid the contention of multiple servers competing for db locks, although a singleton is better for the latter.
