Looking at the headers alist, it seems the client sent Connection: Keep-alive. I am
guessing that you would get the same terminal output ("... kept alive ...") for
any kind of HTTP request where the client sends such a header, regardless of whether you
are using http-server-form-posts or not.
That's right. As long as the client doesn't send "Connection: close" (HTTP/1.1)
or does send "Connection: keep-alive" (HTTP/1.0), the connection stays open,
to allow persistent connections (at least, that's my reading of the HTTP
protocol). Spiffy doesn't do timeouts yet, so it waits either on a connection
breakdown or until the client times out and closes the connection.
cheers,
