Consul clients will, by + default, attempt to establish a new connection every 120s to 180s unless + the size of the cluster is sufficiently large. The rate at which agents + begin to query new servers is proportional to the size of the Consul + cluster (servers should never receive more than 64 new connections per + second per Consul server as a result of rebalancing). Clusters in stable + environments who use `allow_stale` should see a more even distribution of + query load across all of their Consul servers.
