Approaches disclosed herein provide for the use of load balancers to perform tasks such as to queue traffic. In at least one embodiment, a plurality of parallel links queue traffic by, at least in part, representing a weight of the plurality of parallel links as a plurality of bit strings, where the plurality of bit strings are converted to a plurality of sparse bit strings, and where the plurality of sparse bit strings to be used to generate a representative vector of sequentially interleaved bits of the plurality of sparse bit strings. The traffic for the plurality of parallel links can be queued according to the representative vector.
