Hi Peter,
Thanks for your reply, it hurts though, :(
I was concerned about what you said back, which should be this one:
PeterZ: Fourthly, I'm _never_ going to merge anything that hijacks the load balancer
and does some random other thing. There's going to be a single load-balancer
full stop.
But some explanation to this interception/hijack. It is driven by a sched
policy (SD_WORKLOAD_CONSOLIDATION) and the resulting effect of that policy if
enabled, or still part of the load balancer. Can't do/call it that way?
Thanks,
Yuyang
