Lingering Connections?

I'm using libcurl to manage all HTTP traffic in my application to a few web
servers for all traffic in my application. I have around 300,000 users
currently. Apparently the HTTP sessions are never disconnecting, and the web
server is having to time them out after 120 seconds. I believe these
connections are completely idle. How do I prevent curl from leaving these
connections open when they are not in use.
