[Icecast] Many short connections less than 1 second

[Tony Harding]

Some of these may be stats programs reading the state of the streams or the PHP for players connecting to read the metadata to display.

Hi Chris,

 ⼂

I agree that it looks very strange, that line 1 has a different software than 3 and 4.

Some software is trying to have more than one connection on the beginning, but not several very short ones.

And as I know, there are no stable connections and short connection at the same time.

 ⼂

Regards,

Hans-Georg

Is it possible their listening software has some kind of local buffer

and they

are just keeping it full?

 ⼂

Is there any benefit to having lots of short overlapping connections

rather than

one solid connection?

 ⼂

Having Line 1 be a different software than lines 3 and 4 is kind of odd.
