The tiny amount of testing I've done semms to indicate that it works. See
http://siag.nu/hypermail/pen/0054.html. Whether it is useful or not is
another question.

If a connection attempt fails (connection refused or timeout), the server
is "blacklisted" for a period of time. The default timeout period is 5
seconds and the default blacklist time is 30 seconds.
See http://siag.nu/hypermail/pen/0038.html for an example of better error
detection.
