+ * The idea behind the find_best_byrequests scheduler is the following:
+ *
+ * lbfactor is "how much we expect this worker to work", or "the worker's
+ * normalized work quota".
+ *
+ * lbstatus is "how urgent this worker has to work to fulfill its quota
+ * of work".
+ *
+ * We distribute each worker's work quota to the worker, and then look
+ * which of them needs to work most urgently (biggest lbstatus). This
+ * worker is then selected for work, and its lbstatus reduced by the
+ * total work quota we distributed to all workers. Thus the sum of all
+ * lbstatus does not change.(*)
+ *
+ * If some workers are disabled, the others will
+ * still be scheduled correctly.
+ *
+ * If a balancer is configured as follows:
+ *
+ * worker a b c d
+ * lbfactor 25 25 25 25
+ *
+ * And b gets disabled, the following schedule is produced:
+ *
+ * a c d a c d a c d ...
+ *
+ * Note that the above lbfactor setting is the *exact* same as:
+ *
+ * worker a b c d
+ * lbfactor 1 1 1 1
+ *
+ * Asymmetric configurations work as one would expect. For
+ * example:
+ *
+ * worker a b c d
+ * lbfactor 1 1 1 2
+ *
+ * would have a, b and c all handling about the same
+ * amount of load with d handling twice what a or b
+ * or c handles individually. So we could see:
+ *
+ * b a d c d a c d b d ...
