Hello, I initially reported this in April 2021 and @Yann Ylavic quickly made a patch out of it. I am not sure why it didn't make it.
You can see the conversation here for reference: https://httpd.markmail.org/message/xteh3uw53inl25gx?q=mod_proxy_hcheck+response+timeout%3F I also agree it is a good patch and although I initially had issues with it it was probably due to some problem on my part. Your confirmation may be good enough to validate it and propose it for next release perhaps? Thanks for bringing this back.
