Hi Christopher,

The load balancing portion of Ultra Monkey is called IPVS or LVS, it lives
inside the Kernel and is thus written in C. feedbackd implements a similar
system to what you describe on top of IPVS. It runs in user-space and
reconfigures IPVS as necessary. I imagine that you could implement a
similar system running on tip of IPVS written in Java if needed.
