I don't really understand what's going on with http requests.
When I started child processes and uvicorn timeout_keep_alive
timed out, I tried hitting "stop" in the browser and got infinite loading and no HTTP connection log. But if I try to click other buttons or refresh the page, it works and I get two responses.
Netstat shows that socket bind on port 60862 is opened, but uvicorn log:
TRACE: 127.0.0.1:60862 - HTTP connection lost.

The multiprocessing module uses the process forking technique, in which file and socket descriptors are inherited by child processes as usual. Therefore, the child process will use the same connected socket as the parent process.
