Sorting the server list
The server list is sorted first by weight. The server with the smallest RTT is put at the top of the list, regardless of weight. When a packet is lost (there has been no response in 2 seconds), it will be resent to the next server in the list. Therefore, the top position in the list is selected based on RTT while the other list positions are based on weight.
