Excellent, this is very encouraging. > My only concern with this patch is what if there is a persistent > connection and `conn_count` is always greater than zero and that > triggers GC. It should not be a problem because the "lua" struct is per-Lua instance, hence per-stream, so we shouldn't have that many connections per stream and they'll be GC'd once the Lua instance or the stream is terminated. And if someone runs a self-contained Lua application creating that many sockets and never closing them, the current situation doesn't help either. What I propose if you agree is that I'll merge the patch into 2.2 next week. This will give us quite some time to observe if it requires more adjustments. And then you can pick it and apply it to your local tree in order to save some resources. Thanks, Willy
