+        <p>The above connection states are managed by the listener thread via dedicated queues, that up to 2.4.27 were checked every 100ms
+        to find which connections hit timeout settings like <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mpm_common.html#timeout">Timeout</a></code> and
+        <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#keepalivetimeout">KeepAliveTimeout</a></code>. This was a simple and efficient solution, but it presented a downside: the pollset was
+        forcing a wake-up of the listener thread even if there was no need (for example because completely idle), wasting resources. From 2.4.27
+        these queues are completely managed via an event based logic, not relying anymore on active polling.
+        Resource constrained environments, like embedded servers, may benefit from this improvement.</p>
