Oh, right. Synchronous APIs have no way to time out. So if the remote
host does not close gracefully (i.e. just slams the connection shut)
then you will be left with a connection object which either has no way
to be destroyed, or has to wait what could be a very long time (up to
2 hours) for the operating system to time out the synchronous read.

Please try the asynchronous example, http_server_async_ssl.cpp and
determine if the problem persists.

Thanks
