Thanks.

Is there UI feedback to the user during the wait, or does the browser just show "waiting for response" for the whole time? If a user refreshes the browser a bunch of times during the wait, will the Hakuna proxy give up on those requests or still pass all of them through to the target server?

We cannot provide UI feedback during the wait: being a HTTPS proxy, we would need the SSL certificate to reply to the request, otherwise it would be some kind of MitM.

If the client closes the socket before the start of the server, the proxy gives up on its requests.
