The "least_conn" balancing method is equivalent to round-robin as long as all configured upstream servers have equal number of connections opened. That is, if you are seeing nginx is "doing round robin", most likely this means that there isn't enough active connections for least_conn to be different from round-robin. Note well that "number of connections" applies to a single nginx worker process, and if there is more than one worker, least_conn might not see all the connections (unless you've configured nginx to share information about upstream servers between worker processes, see http://nginx.org/r/zone). -- Maxim Dounin http://mdounin.ru/ _______________________________________________ nginx mailing list nginx@nginx.org http://mailman.nginx.org/mailman/listinfo/nginx
