Nginx upstream not balancing properly

Server NGINX
1

Hi,

I am running latest nginx and using it for load balancing. I am using
the
upstream fair module.

I have 3 backend servers running apache. The problem is that when I
start a
load test the balancing is not done correctly. The first server in the
upstream gets most of the traffic and the other 2 get very few traffic.
If I
restart nginx then all 3 backend servers start to get the same ammount
of
traffic

Am I doing something wrong?

Please advise

First of all, do you mean our standard least_conn functionality or some
3rd party module?

Can you try your setup with
http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_upstream_module.html#least_conn

which is part of standard distributions since 1.3.1 and 1.2.2-stable?
