How much should I be worried about termination status "cD" in TCP sessions

Hello,

outline of my problem: I see requests that are closed with termination_status cD. The number of requests is tied to the value set for configuration item timeout client (I’ve started with 2000 and getting a high number), setting timeout client 60000 decreased the frequency but seems to be high to me. The HTTP client library is python requests.

haproxy version is 1.8.8

question:

  • How much should I be worried about such status considering I got around 10 errors for about 17800 requests per hour.
  • Is my configuration wrong ?
  • do you have tips to debug such issue ?

here my setup

  • haproxy is installed locally on each node (7) that requires external access
  • a frontend fe is listening in tcp mode and send request to backend be
  • a backend be is configured to have 2 backend servers which are squid
  • application on each node is configured to use http://127.0.0.1:18888 as proxy

overview.
