?Hi Willy
Will -st kill all connections whether or not there are still active transactions being processed?

At some point they will disappear since the old process does not accept any new connection. However I understand it can be long, especially with some setups using 24h as the timeout, resulting in dead clients maintaining their connection for an artificially long time! There was a feature I wanted to implement for client-side HTTP keep-alive which would consist in reducing the keep-alive timeout and disabling keep- alive for new requests over existing connections, so that these ones would vanish much faster. Maybe we could do something like this for existing tunnels. It's not very easy if we want to consider existing silent connections. If you really don't care about the old connections, just use -st instead of -sf when reloading, and once the new process takes over, the old one will go away even if it has some remaining connections.
