I'm brand new to haproxy, having just implemented it this week. So far, it's been great.
We are using it in front of a series of Apache web servers using mod_php. I've seen some notes around that indicate you can (or should) disable KeepAlive on your Apache servers and use option http-server-close to do client side keepalive using HAproxy, which seems like a good idea in our case. What I'm wondering is, what is the case for using http-server-close in a frontend vs. backend, or both? I have some other front and backends that I specifically don't want keepalive, so I don't want to set it in defaults. Thanks! Jay
