I plan to add someting like this:

upstream name { server host:9000 max_conn=5 max_wait=100 wait_time=60s; }

Also Igor, what is the algorithm that nginx uses for proxy module? Is it a round robin or something else?

Yes, currently it's round-robin only.

I've already put a whishlist entry into wiki ... I'm a big fan of mod_backhand (http://www.backhand.org/mod_backhand/), which is
an inteligent load balancer/HA/proxy for apache 1.3.x. It's almost too simple to
set up and is "setup and forget". Yes, it really works that well. If there's a
chance of nginx getting such functionality, then the wolrd would be a better
place :)
