Well, usrloc-cl is in experimental module and latest version of openser has db-mode 3 (the same) and path implementation, so Andreas' setup is possible. The thing is, this way of doing it makes sense for some setups and for a small-scale setup (like 1000 accounts), the setup is a bit complicated. It also requires mysql cluster competence etc etc.
Well, our system is designed for 100.000+ users with the possibility to scale to an arbitrary number... and it works pretty well... an overview of the system is given in chapter 7 of http://linguin.org/thesis.php
It's quite simple. What you need is some basic knowledge in heartbeat or any other FMS and in MySQL-Cluster.
Basic tests with one balancer and two proxies revealed a rate of ~160 call attempts per second (with a quite complex routing config with
1.000 lines) and ~600 registrations per second, so this should be
enough for most of the setups out there...
