Least connections member can be viewed as sorting a list of pool members in a pool by the number of open connections (tcp/udp/etc.).
Least connections node can be viewed as sorting the list of pool members by total connections to the node object, referencing the entire connection table of the BIG-IP.
I would look at using least connections member mostly, but if you have a machine that takes the same type of data on multiple ports, say a server that hosts web sites different ports (say tcp/8000-8019), and each port is associated with a virtual server with pools referencing only 1 port, then least connections node on all of those pools may make sense.
