i've done a web based master server before, but it was pretty basic, and used http 1.0 now im thinking about doing another version with http 1.1 so the server can keep a connection permanently open to the master server as tcp connections are blocking, previously i've had to use multithreading for the server to ping the master server every 5 minutes or so. now, i want to keep a connection permanently open (using http 1.1) and im wondering if this would be 2 much of a burden for the master server? suggestions?

How many simultaneous users will you serve? If it's 1,000 or more, it may start becoming a problem. If less than that, I wouldn't worry. With 1.1, you can always send connection close, and revert back to the 1.0 behavior, if you want to.
