We are planning to setup proxy service using HaProxy. We realized that when we send multiple reload signals at same time, haproxy process count increases and the old process do not die.
If we serialize the reload requests( i.e. execute one after other), we do not see the leak. Note : This happens even when there is not traffic to the site and the old process never die. sukrit@sukrit-dev:~$ haproxy -v *HA-Proxy version 1.5.3 2014/07/25* Linux (Ubuntu Trusty 14.04) : 3.13.0-32-generic Test Script : service haproxy reload & service haproxy reload & Use Case: We are providing proxy as a service to our internal apps to do a blue green deploy. Once new app comes up, we do a reload. SInce we have multiple workers running which processes the deployment request, at times we might have 2 proxy requests being served at same time. I was wondering if that is intended behavior and our script should handle the serialization of request or if it is a bug. Thanks and Regards Sukrit Khera
