Gremlin Python keepalive behavior - Apache TinkerPop

Gremlin Python keepalive behavior

python

We had reports of the gremlinpython driver connection being closed by an AWS ALB after 60 seconds.

This is the default ALB timeout, we tried to reproduce but couldn't.

Attached is an interesting breakdown of what is happening in the driver and why.

Is anyone looking at the behavior of the python eventloop now? We are interested in fixing this behavior.
