Sorry, but that's not possible at the moment due to load and privacy
concerns.

I just had an example for which I could examine at the internal host - it
tries to communicate with fsecure via the socket, so it should be in the
DATA ACL. This should not take longer than final_timeout. Btw: Disabling
TLS between internal and external host seemed to be a good idea as the
number of long hanging connections seem to decrease.

Sorry for the weird stuff
