Hi Malcolm,
I just checked through the code and the IP_VS_DEST_F_OVERLOAD flag of
a real-server is set if the number of connections exceeds the preset
upper-threshold. And is cleared once the number of connections drops
below the lower-threshold.
To be more precise, the number of connections is calculated in
ip_vs_dest_totalconns() as simply the total number of active and
inactive connections. And the setting and clearing occurs
in ip_vs_bind_dest() and ip_vs_unbind_dest().
This should only occur if the upper threshold for the real-server
(dest->u_threshold) is non-zero. So verifying that would be a good start.
OF course, there could well be a bug in there.

Getting OPS upstream is on my todo list. So if you have a patch
then I'm very interested in it.
