    coltom: You do understand how load balancing works, right? 9 out of 10 servers are working right, the 10th doesn't. A user's request gets sent to the bad server and bam. assuming they don't have proper health checking configured for their load balancer, this is exactly what they'd see. But then, you don't design load balanced web infrastructures for a living, do you?
