To fix the problems with this you now need to start using clustering, load balancing etc which adds its own performance overhead.
That''s a bit complex, easier would be to do a sort of "fixed" load balancing, i.e. if you''ve got 3 gateways, when you log in the login server picks the best gateway and you talk to that for the remainder of your session.
It''s not perfect, but it''s a hell of a lot easier to implement than a proper load balanced system.
If I had my way, I''d have all of you shot!
