Hi mhuss3y,
Can you check the logs when you applied the HTTP profile and when the connection breaks?
tail -f /var/log/ltm
Also, can you capture the tcpdumps?
tcpdump -ni 0.0:nnn -s0 host or host or host
Do you know what is the maximum http headers that your getting everytime it failed? The Maximum Header Size in HTTP profile by default is 32768 bytes. BIGIP TMM uses the Maximum Header Size option to create a memory buffer to hold the HTTP header for processing. When a request exceeds the specified HTTP header size limit, the BIG-IP system aborts the connection by sending a TCP RST - that is one posibility that I can think when your connection "breaks".
Hope that helps.
