Pro - Load Distribution Strategy

Hey Team,

Our setup has 2 media nodes and the first node got crashed as the CPU utilization reached 100%. The load distribution strategy was set to streams when it happened. I changed the value to cpu and then the load started distributing to the second server. My questions are,

  1. Is there any detailed documentation explaining how different load strategies work and how one can decide which strategy should be adopted.
  2. The first server was having 100% CPU utilization before the load is distributed to the second one. Is there any parameter that decides that the load should be distributed on what CPU utilization percentage?
