Hi,

why don't u use a NFS Share to put your Wiki DocumentRoot ?

I've try loadbalancing & mysqlclustering for use with mediawiki ...

No problem at all with mysql5-cluster ( except for some indexes &  
keys that are not yet supported for NDB Type ) but I don't use these  
tables in my wiki so, iy works fine,

but I've experienced many problem with apache load balancing ( using  
Heartbeat + LDirector ) ...

Some times, you have to re-authenticate because the cookies used  
belongs to on server and became invalid on the other :(

I guess we have to adapt the mediawiki code for that ...

Best regards,

Arnaud.

I've not really time to make much more tests right now ...
