I support one application that has been running for a couple of years that forwards CGI requests to a second server. (The second server is Cheyenne from Softinnov with which you may be familiar).

This load balancing feature of nginx use a simple approach in the free version, I believe the “not free” version has more sophisticated load balancing.
