I'm not really sure of that because it is pretty hard to reproduce that one but I have the impression that, if you have many users connecting nearly at the same time (and especially within the loadchecker sleep time which is 300s by default), the load factor value is not recalculated and thus, you might have many users sent to the same server instead of beeing equally distributed of the farm. Sometime, I have 3, 4, 5 ... users sent to the same server while I have a few servers empty of connected users. This is a race condition but every morning, it can happen since our users starts between 8:30AM and 9:30AM and we have about 100 users so you can easily have 5~6 people connecting in less than a minute.
I think the load calculation should be more dynamic and not strictly done every x minutes.
For example, you can still do the load calculation every 5mn in order to "reset" load values once but then, I think something like this could be done :
