Hi

The documentation states the following about the lock property.

Specifies what lock method the load balancer will use for synchronizing
shared memory runtime data. If lock is set to O[ptimistic] balancer will not
use shared memory lock to find the best worker. If set to P[essimistic]
balancer will use shared memory lock. The balancer will work more accurately
in case of Pessimistic locking, but can slow down the average response time.

How does the balancer find the best worker if set to optimistic? Reading the
documentation it seems that using pessimistic is the only accurate way of
doing load balancing if you are willing to take a performance hit.

I am not sure how method and locking properties relate to one another.

It would be really great if someone could expand a bit more on this property
and implications.

Regards
