The THTTPApplication is part of the standalone "HTTP server Application"
(default project) of the weblazextra package. There is no apache server
involved.
There is no difference if I user http 1.0, http 1.1 or if I set
"Connection: close".
It is also impossible to send a second request over the open connection.
I have tested, and a strace shows that the connection is always closed:
