Example : build several same workshops. Set any one workshop for use only for Legendary dwarves. Then order to build something that shop creates, using Manager screen. All the orders will pile up in Legendary workshop, others will stand empty.

I can't reproduce this.  The jobs distribute evenly between all of my shops.  Other observations of this sort of behavior?

Forgot to mention : i set one shop to only legendary, and others of this kind to all EXCEPT legendary, since i only have one legendary guy.

I had something similar with three magma forges. The manager put almost every job in the first built forge, a few in the second and most often none in the third. But I hadn't set any special profile for any of the forges.

Are these various work orders?  If you make one work order, the manager will equidistribute them.  I don't think the manager is currently smart enough to take various different work orders that go to the same shop type and put them in various shops.  That might be what you guys are observing?  Like, for me:

make 20 rock crafts would put 4 jobs in each of 5 shops

but 20 different craft shop orders to build 1 object would put 10 in the first shop and 10 in the second, leaving the others empty, since the manager doesn't currently check all of the possible jobs for that shop
