Hi there!

I'm working my way through the massive chapter on IceGrid and one aspect that really moves me is its restricted definition of "load".

There doesn't seem to be (or at least I couldn't see it) a hook for the server / node / app to register its own load parameters to be used for load balancing. What if it is not CPU load I want to build my balancing strategy on but e.g. number of connected clients, number of open files, thermal heat, whatever?

Why not have an IceGrid interface any "gridded" application has to implement to deliver its load and have IceGrid follow its strategy based on the values it queries over this interface??
