Failing to call res.send(200) in an express app

Additionally, I found you can pass -r to ab to have it ignore socket errors.
When I use that I actually start to see some requests being completed:

Completed 100 requests
Completed 200 requests
apr_pollset_poll: The timeout specified has expired (70007)

What could be happening here?
Does express or node know to time out and close the connections?
