Use case - We’ve some origins behind our proxy that get very low qps. Our 
server session sharing is set to Host based and have a floor on min keep alive 
connections as it is not overridable at the moment. Because of the floor the 
server sessions never drop below that number, even when those individual 
servers are down or taken out of rotation. When a request finally arrives for 
these services, because of host based match, we tend to pick up these stale 
sessions, ignoring the new dns results. This can go on for a while failing the 
requests. This is actually a bug in that we aren’t purging the stale sessions 
(bcoz of the floor handling) from the session pools. 


So, we’d like to customise the floor min keep alive connections per service. 
Here’s the PR https://github.com/apache/trafficserver/pull/5830

Any comments/suggestions?

Thanks,

Sudheer
