Actually the "Actual" client *is* the LB. The indirect client IP is what _might_ be found somewhere in the XFF header path sequence. The load balancing algorithms are designed for use when Squid is the LB. Not really when some other software is doing the LB in front of it. sourcehash hits the limits implied by that pretty hard. Any one of the other algorithms is more appropriate for your setup. I suggest carp or round-robin if you just want to spread the messages around some peers.
