Okay, let me rephrase your question.

How can be a IP blocked which creates a request which takes
$too_much_time to response.

Where could be the $too_much_time defined?
Could it be the "timeout server ..." config parameter?

Could the "%Tr" or "%TR" be used from logformat for that?
https://docs.haproxy.org/2.6/configuration.html#8.2.6

or the request get a 504 for internal state.

Idea:

backend block_bad_client
  stick-table  type ip size 100k expire 30s store http_req_rate(10s)
  http-request track-sc0 src unless { $too_much_time }

and call the table block_bad_client in the frontend config.

Is this what you would like to do?

I'm not sure if this is possible with HAProxy.

Is it possible to rate limit a specific "computationally expensive"
HTML request from the same IP address to a much smaller number?

What do you define as a "computationally expensive" request?

Maybe you could draw a bigger Picture and tell us what version of HAProxy do 
you use.

In the upcoming 2.7 is also a "Bandwidth limitation", maybe this could help to 
solve your issue.

HTML is a Description Language therefore I think you want to restrict HTTP 
Request/Response, isn't it?
