Kshitiz,I use linux os, and my ports is enabled.

Yes, I do the test what u said , that is , I found the load capability is the same , whether or not I install the load-balancer plugin , and I think its too low ( with the setting of works is 1) , the concurrent users is about 100-200 , if I use single glassfish without cluster , it can deal about 2000 concurrent users!
