DB (sort-last) load-balancing

Continuing our set of movies, below is a video showing automatic database load-balancing.

Furthermore, this is a fairly new feature, just checked in yesterday. To my knowledge, Equalizer is the only toolkit on the market doing this (unless you count MPK ). The only thing required from the application is the capability to use a different database-range each frame for rendering, the rest is done by Equalizer behind the scenes.

All this stuff is available in the brand-new 0.5.4 developer release.
