Hi there! First off, I'd like to thank the HAProxy team for creating such a wonderful piece of software; honestly our company wouldn't be where we are today without its capabilities!
I had a quick question about pulling accurate request time logging once Keep-Alives are enabled for HAProxy. Today we stopped closing HTTP connections after each request (removed "option httpclose" to be exact), which has been part of our configuration since the days when we used STunnel with its X-Forwarded-For patch. We upgraded to HAProxy 1.5 with SSL termination a while ago, and thus we finally decided to remove the connection closing from HAProxy so that we can use Keep-Alives. Everything is going swimmingly, except for the quirk that the Tq value in the HAProxy log is relative to the start of the connection and not the start of the actual HTTP request (relevant explanation in HAProxy docs<http://cbonte.github.io/haproxy-dconv/configuration-1.5.html#option%20http-server-close>). I was wondering if you knew of any tips/tricks for extracting the actual incoming request time when Keep-Alives are enabled in HAProxy? From what we can see, there doesn't appear to be any way to get the request time of a subsequent request within the same connection. We track the Tq value as an indication of any incoming network issues, so losing this valuable data in order to use keep-alives would be a tough trade-off for us.
