I have enabled keep-alives to a service (sitting behind an F5) and I'm
seeing "Connection reset by peer"

What happens if a keep-alive connection is used but then fails?

Does LWP ever retry a failed connection like this?

Apparently HTTP/1.1 doesn't require a "Connection: keep-alive".   Does LWP
still assume a keep-alive connection even w/o that header?

Thanks,
