Comment(by mingw-san):

 Replying to [ticket:1840 arma]:
 > The second question is: why are we culling the OR connection when
 there's a circuit that isn't connected yet but wants to be? That sounds
 like a check we forgot to add (that didn't matter when the timeout was 15
 minutes, but now matters when the timeout is 3 minutes).

 Seems like it was "Expiring non-open OR connection" actually, but
 (past_keepalive && !connection_state_is_open(conn)) never be true since
 (by default)IDLE_OR_CONN_TIMEOUT < options->KeepalivePeriod.
