A server farm doesn't buy us anything, as trac can't be scaled up across multiple hosts (or even multiple CPUs on a single host).
I'm surprised to hear that.
Usually replication of servers for read requests works well with dns sharing.
Does Trac not run a database? that can go on another machine and lighten the load.
Anyway, it's your call. Keep up the good work.
Part of the trouble is that there are no trac requests which are read- only. Even anonymous view requests do things to the session table. That could probably be overcome with some coding. Perhaps someone would like to work on that? It would be useful, although there may be better ways to spend trac maintenance time (but maybe not, who knows!).
