A system is disclosed, comprising: a centralized routing node configured to: identify a set of congested links based on the link utilization statistics, each congested link having at least one traffic flow that may be active, each traffic flow having at least one traffic source and a path set comprising a set of nodes and links that may be used by the traffic flow as packets travel from the at least one traffic source to one or more destinations; identify a set of non-congested links based on the link utilization statistics, each non-congested link sharing at least one traffic source with a traffic flow of a congested link in the set of congested links; identify a path fork in a path set between a source and a destination of a particular traffic flow associated with a particular congested link in the set of congested links; and compute a new utilization level for the particular congested link that would result from moving the particular traffic flow from the particular congested link to a particular non-congested link in the set of non-congested links.
