Package: stunnel4
Version: 3:4.18-2
Severity: minor

I use stunnel to get SSL feature in lua through unix domain socket by dup2 the
stdin with a socketpair() then fork(), exec() stunnel. It works very well
except one thing, closing the domain socket would take 60 seconds(waitpid) for
stunnel to exit. For many protocols, there is explicit "EXIT" command which I
can use but not for HTTP 1.1 with keep-alive. The server would wait for the
client socket to close which in the case of stunnel needs to "relay" to it.

Just hope there is a parameter for me to shorten this wait time as by the time
I close the client side, I would not need the connection anymore. At the
moment, I just skip the waitpid() but that leaves lots of zombie in the
process table. It is not a big issue, just ugly when doing "top".
