Waitress connection cleanup

[Cooper Baird]

The documentation says "When the connection related to a channel is closed, the channel is destroyed and garbage collected.". So is that process different from the channel timeout connection cleanup process in that clients hanging up the connection get their corresponding channels cleaned up immediately (making room for new connections), whereas in a channel timeout, those connections are only cleaned up periodically on the configured "cleanup interval" and they take up a connection slot (out of the configured connection limit) until that point?

If a client hangs up then there's no problems, the issue that is being referenced is about unused, idle, connections that are taking up space that counts toward the limit (because while they are idle, a client could send data over it at any moment). The cleanup interval, etc is around how Waitress decides to kill those connections based on how long they have been idle.
