Seems like mostly FUD. No mention of specific issues in any clients. And please have a look at other high throughput systems (like Cassandra or VoltDB) before claiming that a load balancer is the proper way to connect clients to a distributed system.

Try to be more careful about the term "FUD". I know it isn't written anywhere that this is the case, but in reality, "FUD" implies a bad-faith effort to convince people to avoid something; it means the person spreading the message doesn't care if it's true or not.

There is a big difference between that kind of "FUD" and simply being incorrect or under-informed about things, even if you think people should have an obligation to be better informed before relating their opinions.

Interesting. Noted.
