* Some of the features of marathon-lb assume that it is the only instance of itself running in a PID namespace. i.e. marathon-lb assumes that it is running in a container. Certain features like the `/_mlb_signal` endpoints and the `/_haproxy_getpids` endpoint (and by extension, zero-downtime deployments) may behave unexpectedly if more than one instance of marathon-lb is running in the same PID namespace or if there are other HAProxy processes in the same PID namespace.

* You may want to set the `HAPROXY_RELOAD_SIGTERM_DELAY` environment variable to a value such as `5m`. This value is passed directly to the `sleep` command, which is executed after every HAProxy reload before sending a SIGTERM to the old HAProxy PIDs (see [service/haproxy/run](service/haproxy/run)). For cases where you expect long-lived TCP connections, you may _not_ want to terminate HAProxy before all connections finish. See [this discussion](http://www.serverphorums.com/read.php?10,862139) for more on HAProxy reloads, and issues [#5](https://github.com/mesosphere/marathon-lb/issues/5), [#71](https://github.com/mesosphere/marathon-lb/issues/71), [#267](https://github.com/mesosphere/marathon-lb/issues/267), [#276](https://github.com/mesosphere/marathon-lb/issues/276), and [#318](https://github.com/mesosphere/marathon-lb/issues/318) for more. If you are reloading so frequently that PIDs are being reused within the delay you specify, this may result in SIGTERMs being sent to the wrong PIDs.
