> Our origin server is a balancer, and sometimes we have to tweak weights of the real backend servers.
> I haven't found this kind of option in ATS so I'd like to ask if this idea could be accepted.
> The idea is to close an origin connection after some time has passed, or a certain number of requests have been made. We're more interested in the fact that after X seconds a connection will be closed, and a new one opened.
> This should be quite safe to implement in ATS itself theoretically: if the condition has met, remove the connection from the pool for new requests. After all requests are complete, close that connection.
> It's not precise, but it guarantees that after a certain time/requests eventually that connection will be closed.
> In practice, it will be closed at most after the given time + transaction_active_timeout_out if I'm not wrong.
