--- features: - | Add a new configuration option to define the default connection_limit for new listeners that use the Amphora provider. The option is [haproxy_amphora].default_connection_limit and its default value is 50,000. This value is used when creating or setting a listener with -1 as connection_limit parameter, or when unsetting connection_limit parameter. fixes: - | With haproxy 1.8.x releases, haproxy consumes much more memory in the amphorae because of pre-allocated data structures. This amount of memory depends on the maxconn parameters in its configuration file (which is related to the connection_limit parameter in the Octavia API). In the Amphora provider, the default connection_limit value -1 is now converted to a maxconn of 50,000. It was previously 1,000,000 but that value triggered some memory allocation issues when quickly performing multiple configuration updates in a load balancer.
