True, but what I meant is that the amount of memory required to hold a
connection from a client with SYN-ACK-SYNACK already being sent shouldbe
really minimal, like around 100 bytes or so ... and this structure is
upgraded to look like a socket structure only when the proxy decides that
it can take more connections. Otherwise neither are we wasting too much
memory, and it won't be really bad to jsut throw away the connection.
