Hi all,

as a total HAProxy newbie I have the following questions:

1) Is there a documentation explaining the way HAProxy is working?
There is the configuration manual, but I couldn't find a document
explaining the basic steps involved. It would be nice to have
a top level view on the way HAProxy is working with crossreference
to config variables determining several aspects of these process
steps.

2) I hope I understand it right: HAProxy is able (http-mode) to
buffer the output (response) from a backend server, so that the
server process is made free as soon as possible. A slow client 
would therefore "only" consume ressources on the HAProxy.
How much data from the response can be buffered by HAProxy?
Is there a config variable? Is it tcp/ip buffering or 
buffering in HAProxy userspace?

Thank you in advance.

Best regards
Andreas Mock
