HAProxy stability

[manus]

Since 4 or 5 minor release, we have a 100% CPU on HAProxy after some time (1-2 months).
Only a reboot solve the problem.
Anybody with this problem too?

When HAProxy will be updated to 1.7.x? or at minima to last 1.6 (1.6.12)?

I have an HA setup with HA Proxy and runs pretty sweet, consumes a little CPU on heavy load but then comes back to idle...

so far HA Proxy 1.6 seems rock solid

The only problem I have is when Failing over to backup firewall, master firewall stays on as cant kill HAproxy process, so the work around for me to failover is to cut the network first and then is fails over normally.

HAProxy maintainer (fraenki) wanted to wait with the 1.7 switch for OPNsense 17.7, so in roughly a month.

I don't know about idle / cpu load issues, but maybe fraenki knows more.

I've seen this problem a few times, but couldn't track down the root cause. In these cases a "killall -9 haproxy" was useful, no reboot required.

It will be interesting to see if HAProxy 1.7 fixes this issue; it will be available in OPNsense 17.7.
