Hello Diptesh,
The catch in that ask F5 article you linked to is that they refer to "ratio" but never mention what the other half of the ration is - it is 'Least Connections:Fastest Response' (I'm simplifying and may have the order of the ration backward), but simply, it combines both to come up with which server gets the next incoming connection.
