• Operates at TCP level; HTTP not required• Currently only engages when conn limit hit• Specify queue length limit, time limit, or both• Queues operate per-tmm (no state sharing)

• Length limit divided by tmm count• FIFO guarantees only per-tmm

• Queued at the pool level for non-persistent connections• Queued at the pool member level for persistent connections

• If conn limit is overridden by persistence, that conn is not queued

• When a pool member becomes available, it checks the head of its queue, and of the pool’s queue, and services the flow that got there first.
