<h3>Summary</h3>
<p>This module does not provide any configuration directives of its own.
It requires the services of <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_proxy_balancer.html">mod_proxy_balancer</a></code>, and
provides the <code>bytraffic</code> load balancing method..</p>

<div class="section">
<h2><a name="traffic" id="traffic">Weighted Traffic Counting Algorithm</a></h2>
<p>Enabled via <code>lbmethod=bytraffic</code>, the idea behind this
scheduler is very similar to the Request Counting method, with
the following changes:</p>
<p><dfn>lbfactor</dfn> is <em>how much traffic, in bytes, we want
this worker to handle</em>. This is also a normalized value
representing their "share" of the amount of work to be done,
but instead of simply counting the number of requests, we take
into account the amount of traffic this worker has either seen
or produced.</p>
<p>If a balancer is configured as follows:</p>
<table><tr><th>worker</th>
<th class="data">a</th>
<th class="data">b</th>
<th class="data">c</th></tr>
<tr><th>lbfactor</th>
<td class="data">1</td>
<td class="data">2</td>
<td class="data">1</td></tr>
</table>
<p>Then we mean that we want <var>b</var> to process twice the
amount of bytes than <var>a</var> or <var>c</var> should. It does
not necessarily mean that <var>b</var> would handle twice as
many requests, but it would process twice the I/O. Thus, the
size of the request and response are applied to the weighting
and selection algorithm.</p>
<p>Note: input and output bytes are weighted the same.</p>
