Oh, sorry. I wasn't paying attention enough to the screenshot. Those are
TCP keepalives. Most discussion about keepalives in gRPC involves using
HTTP/2 pings.

The netty server enables SO_KEEPALIVE, but leaves the settings at their
defaults. In most cases the defaults are to send a TCP keepalive after 2
hours of inactivity. The server OS must be configured to use 1s keepalives
by default, which seems very aggressive.
