Load balancing

For simple load balancing what are the pros/cons in using ZooKeeper over 
HAProxy or a hardware loadbalancer?

Thanks

You'll need to be more specific. Load balancing what? zk can be used for
load balancing but you have to have client code that knows how to interpret
the results it gets from zk  which is not necessary with say a hardware
load balancer.
