haproxy's request queueing functionality. It turns out that if you<br>
have slow or chaotic response times from backends (often the case in<br>
Rails world) queuing requests in the proxy will tighten up the<br>
response time variance dramatically, getting the tail-end latency<br>
under control. I'm not sure how many people are using it, but it is<br>
being used on at least a few production sites. It's more or less<br>
stable.<br>
