Err. No, that would be worse. "Per prefix" load balancing is an artifact
of the Cisco route cache. The route engine (ie the route table) isn't
queried for every packet. 
Instead the route in the route cache is used.

On Juniper, you configure it
to put multiple routes in the route table.  Its actaully more likely to
happen on Junipers,

This wasn't clear. See section on junipers in my message to sthaug that I
