That type of load-balancing isn't balancing at all. It sounds like you
want a bucket pour over. That seems like a really poor approach to the
problem.

So, if the www2 machine has a load of 100 and the www1 machine has a
load of .75, you still want to pass it back? Why?

So, if you _really_ want to do this you will need to write your own
candidacy function in C.

otherwise, use:
Backhand byLoad 1

That will choose the www2 machine only if it's load is less that www1's
load - 1.
