Hi,

I'm seeing a whole bunch of childs stuck on graceful so I'm wondering
whether there you could disable graceful closing since these child's take up
a lot of memory being idle like that. I have IdleTimeout set to 12 so the
childs should not be allowed to linger for more than 12 seconds = this is a
bug.

My guess is that they are caused by bots abusing the HTTP protocol and not
sending a FIN/RST TCP response. If this is possible it could be the basis
for a DOS attack against peruser... simply doing a lot of requests without
properly closing the connection would fill up all slots and memory.

Can someone check the code if this is plausible and possibly release a fix
for it?

Regards

~Hannes
