i don't think much juice is required... doesn't that just say that the
same 'flow' will follow the same path through the network? and that
most/all (save a10/yahoo!) loadbalancers just LB based on 5-tuple (at
best)? so keeping things in a single flow/stream/5-tuple will drop
packets from one host deterministicaly on a single other host at the
far side?
