As explained by Thierry, this is because you used the native sockets instead of haproxy's non-blocking ones. I think that after some time we'll start to collect some best practices regarding Lua and such issues will not happen anymore since (as usual), people will write configs by copy-pasting working ones. We're still thinking about setting up a forum dediated to Lua so that people can share their code easily. It's a bit early for now since we're mostly fixing the code and/or design, but once things settle down it should be helpful. Willy
