So if the proxied server never close the connection Apache will have a
ghost connection during "ProxyTimeout value" seconds. It's annoying :p
Not "never close the connection"; rather, if the proxied server never
finishes answering to the proxying server (and, there is no connection
timeout).
What is the proxying server supposed to do instead ?
Or, take this another way : suppose the proxy server isn't there, and
the client connects directly to the final server. What do you think
happens then, that is any different ?
If the client goes away while the server is busy generating the response
(say, consulting a database), the server will also notice only when it
tries to send something to the client, through the now useless socket.
Or, yet another way : there is no "interrupt" generated when the client
goes away, which would enable the server to notice the fact, before it
tries to write to, or read from, the client socket.
