Understanding "proxy_ignore_client_abort" functionality

[shmulik]

Thank you very much for the clarification.

So if i understand correctly, the only way to achieve my original goal,
without modifying the code is to use "proxy_store" - which is actually for
saving the content to disk, but as a side effect will keep the connection to
upstream going even if the client closed it.

Is there another alternative i'm missing?

Thanks,
Shmulik B
