When you ‘close’ “ffplay”, is it sending a RTSP “TEARDOWN” command to the 
server?  Or are you just killing it with <control-c?  If the latter, then the 
server has no way to know that the RTSP TCP connection is no longer being used. 
 It will wait for a period of time (by default, 65 seconds) to check whether it 
sees any more activity on that TCP connection.  Then, and only then, will the 
server close the TCP connection.

So, if your client - for whatever reason - is starting, then killing “ffplay” 
several times in a row, then the server will keep each of these TCP connections 
will stay open for 65 seconds before reclaiming then.
