Hi,
I would like to investigate the use of Click as a load balancer. From
the documentation that I've scanned (not read yet), it seems possible.
However, before diving in, I would like to ask if what I thinking of
implementing is possible:

I would like to build a dynamic load balancer for a cluster of web
servers. I know click can do round robin load balancing. But can it do
other than round robin? What I have is an application that calculates
the "best server" for me. Thus the choice of IP address on each routing
decision will be provided by my application. Is it possible to do
something like this with click?

regards & thanks,
gawesh
