1 conf(weight - When a back end is more equal than others) 2 (To influence how backends are selected, a backend can specify its 3 'weight' in the process. The higher the weight, the less likely a 4 back end will be chosen. The default is 1. 5 6 The weighing mechanism only applies to the dispatch modes 7 tt(random), tt(byconnections), tt(bysize) and tt(byduration). 8 The weight is in fact a penalty factor. E.g., if backend A has 9 tt(weight 2) and backend B has tt(weight 1), then backend B will 10 be selected all the time, until its usage parameter is twice as 11 large as the parameter of A. Think of it as a 'sluggishness' 12 statement.) 13 (tt(weight) em(number); the higher the number, the more 'sluggish' 14 a back end is) 15 (1; all back ends have equal weight.)
