+== Overview
+
+Newly joined nodes can become overloaded, since they initially report 0% load.
+This has been a problem since inception of the project.
+The problem is that the initial load stays in effect for performing load-balancing decisions until a new stat interval kicks in.
+This effect is mitigated by load decay over time, but for the time a new node joins in, it can get overloaded upon startup.

+* https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-10440[WFLY-10440] Upgrade mod_cluster to 1.4.0.Final
+
+This feature is supported since mod_cluster version 1.4.0.Final and was part of the original upgrade PR,
+but was pushed back by QE.

+== Requirements
+
+=== Hard Requirements
+
+* Nodes are registered with the configured load to gradually ramp them up.
+* The default configuration is that the node is fully loaded (`initial-load="0"`)

+
+== Test Plan
+
+QE has already pretested the feature.
+
+== Community Documentation
+
+The upstream documentation for this is submitted with the implementation PR.
+Ideally, general documentation for the mod_cluster subsystem will be updated in the near future.
