I don't really see what you are asking for ? If you want the request to be
answered, just raise the number of max process, you can even disable the
limit (never tested actually, but i don't see why you couldn't).
By the way, for lighty, the "flag" within the load balancer already exists,
since there's a load counter for each process. The mod_fastcgi knows exactly
the load for each process.
