Comment (by tscpd):

 Replying to [comment:7 teor]:

 Diverting fallback weight / same IP in list could be wise:
 2 instances running on 1 IP - 50% fallback weight each of it
 4 instances running on 1 IP - 25% fallback weight each of it
 shouldnt be too hard to implement + even increase good acting


 ...Sounds like there gonna be some potential useful knobs.  Also leaving
 possibility to analyse after generating the list great to hear.
