It's not about idle connections, it's about connections closed by the client before the server fully sent the response. I have an apache module which can detect client disconnects and then stops processing. Having haproxy before those servers, a process keeps running, even though the client has disconnected (by sending FIN,ACK?). I wonder if haproxy can forward it, even in http mode.

Do you concern about idle TCP connections on the backend? Cheers, Pavlos
