Mahadev konar commented on ZOOKEEPER-856:
-----------------------------------------
travis,
we have had a lot of discussion on load balancing. I'd really want to try and
see how the disconnect and reconnect works for load balancing. I am also with
you that it might be a good enough soln on load balancing. I can upload a
simple patch for this. Would you have some bandwidth trying and it out and
reporting how well it works?

> We've experienced a number of issues lately where "ruok" requests would take
> upwards of 10 seconds to return, and ZooKeeper instances were extremely
> sluggish. The sluggish instance requires a restart to make it responsive
> again.
> I believe the issue is connections are very imbalanced, leading to certain
> instances having many thousands of connections, while other instances are
> largely idle.
> A potential solution is periodically disconnecting/reconnecting to balance
> connections over time; this seems fine because sessions should not be
> affected, and therefore ephemaral nodes and watches should not be affected.
