> I wonder if that is necessary. With TCP if the connection is closed, we would get an error while sending the ping to the client, which should be enough for detection (unless the client is a kinda zombie accepting TCP connections but nothing else). It's a common case that middle network equipment drop connections instead of closing them. In this case, you won't get noticed unless you set correctly your timeouts (with is never the default unfortunately). There are several ways to reproduce this behavior if you want. Here are some examples: - configure iptables to drop tcp packets - contact a server (humm in your case it a client) and pause it with Ctrl-Z -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
