To me haproxy's health checks are like a http client. Other http clients like ab, links and other web browsers do not seem to act in the same manner as haproxy does, in that they don't do the same DNS lookups. during the testing I did ab got quick fetches from servers regardless of them having reverse lookup entries. Maybe, just maybe, haproxy's health checks could act in a similar way.
