Yeah, I understand. So what could we do? I am really stuck with this and not able to figure out any workaround either.

I understand, but I see nothing in HTTP which makes it mandatory to read all the content once you have responded. If you respond, you don't need those data anymore. The common practice is to read at least some of them in order to avoid the issue with the close causing a reset. Haproxy reads as much as it can until the close. Once the connection is closed, it cannot read anymore. Apache accepts to read a lot more of data,but with a limit too. Willy
