Hi there, Source hashing scheduling makes a lot of sense for a project we are starting.
One use-case gives us concern though; it's possible a large number of clients sending UDP streams from the same source IP could occur (say a big site behind a NAT), causing an unbalanced load to occur on one real server. The only thing that occurs to me is if source hashing also considered the source port (and assuming the clients were good about picking from a decent range of source ports), to help add granularity to the load-balancing algorithm. What do you all think? Would adding source port to sh (or making a 9th scheduling mechanism) be a good approach to the problem?
