The part I was playing with and the concept they explainedfor these slaves is think of it as firesite in reverse. Fast to slow whereas with firesite you want to go from slow to fast. Load distribution is thepart I looked into, which we all know is where webcat shines, cause itdoesn't need it. I would have to hate to own all the software on multislaves and make sure they were all updated correctly if using FmPro. My 2cents.It might have other features I did not explore that you might find veryvery handy.
