This is because Chrome opens many connections to a server from
very start, trying to reduce latence in case of these connections
will be useful. If they aren't - they are just kept idle and
either closed by Chrome (in this case you'll likely see 400 in
logs) or timed out (in this case you'll see 408).

The "while SSL handshaking" part of the message is a bit
misleading. Probably something like this will make things a bit
better:
