Yes. I'm looking for suggestions on linux distro, kernel, everything. Haproxy is new to me so I'm still digging into this aspect of it. Right now, I'm running keepalived on a pair of CentOS 4 boxes with PIII procs and it's worked for my needs up until this point. I do have the option of migrating to new server platform.
