idp.pool.LDAP.validatePeriod and Pruning

Hi Everyone,

I have a question about LDAP connection pooling and pruning.
The latest Shib documentation describes the following LDAP pooling properties and defaults:

dp.pool.LDAP.validatePeriod

Duration

PT5M

Duration between validation, if idp.pool.LDAP.validatePeriodically is true

…







idp.pool.LDAP.idleTime

Duration

PT10M

Duration connections must be idle to be eligible for pruning


https://wiki.shibboleth.net/confluence/display/IDP4/LDAPAuthnConfiguration

If those above defaults were used, I don't think connections would ever get pruned, as no connection would ever be idle for 10 mins.
Please correct me if I'm mistaken.

Thanks,
Trev
