Yes, you should expect that it will count each request when you have a OneConnect profile in use because that decision is being made before a tcp connection is made to the node to send such request.

Recommend because only the first request would be guaranteed to persist properly, it would be possible the persistence could be ignored for subsequent requests. 1. I believe the behavior will load balance each request not each connection, that's why it requires the L7 profile(HTTP). It will default back to least connection behavior if you don't have that L7 profile. 2. Yes. Summation, OneConnect shouldn't come into play with this load balancing method. I didn't give enough consideration to all your question in my original response.
