It's not exactly this. The timeout will ensure that dead or idle connections will eventually get killed. But active connections will not be killed as long as there is traffic flowing on them. Haproxy only quits after the last session terminates. So for sure, if it is maintained alive because of dead connections, this will help. But if there is regular traffic on active connections, it will not be enough. Regards, Willy
