lslb - ExtConn timed out while connecting.

[Clockwork]

there only seems to be packet loss if the backend servers have much to do, currently there is no packet loss but the problem still occurs

edit:

I've tried httping on some backend servers from the loadbalancer, sometimes there are slow replies:

connected to 192.168.0.5:80, seq=31 time=2999.83 ms

could that be the problem?

httping sends head requests to the target
