Regarding the closing of connections:I know from using gemini-diagnostics that my server is one of those. I just use a generic Perl async server framework and call “close_gracefully” at the end but somewhere in the layers of libraries from Mojo::IOLoop to IO::Socket::SSL to Net::SSLeay to OpenSSL somebody doesn’t handle this the way people expect it to work and I have no idea how to fix it (and I have stared at the source code of all these libraries for more hours than I cared for). So if anybody knows how to fix this using Perl, I’m interested in hearing about it. I got some helpful hints on Station so perhaps yet another look into it all will finally enlighten me.

Please let me know if carcosa.net is among those. Could you also post
a simple program or script for testing this? I feel like we *ought* to
be able to get server authors to fix this pretty easily, unless there
are issues with language bindings making it difficult.
